Increasing evidence suggests that meal timing affects metabolic health. For example, intermittent fasting (IF) may have positive effects on plasma glucose and lipid levels, insulin sensitivity, and blood pressure. However, IF protocols often result in significant weight loss. Therefore, it is not clear to what extent these beneficial metabolic effects are due to IF or to weight loss. Although the effect of IF independent of weight loss has been studied, daily energy intake in those studies did not differ between the days. Therefore, the investigators aim to examine the effect of alternating energy intake - i.e. standardised day-to-day fluctuations in energy intake - on metabolic health independent of weight loss.
The researchers investigate the effect of long-term (12-weeks) consumption of diets rich in boiled potatoes versus those rich in rice or pasta on established cardiovascular risk parameters. These carbohydrate sources will be part of a recommended healthy dietary pattern to mimic as closely as possible current dietary guidelines, facilitating the implementation of the outcomes.
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a lethal disease, reduced low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol due to inhibition of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) reduces cardiovascular events and improve cardiovascular prognosis. we assuming that PCSK9 inhibitor could bring metabolic change in serum, in order to investigate the metabolic modification, we conduct this clinical trial.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the endothelial function of WAK2017. In addition the effects on the blood pressure and the parameters of lipid metabolism will be explored.
