Diets will be designed to maintain body weight; will have 30% of energy as fat which 2/3 or 20% of energy will be either the conventional or reformulated fat. Blood lipids and C reactive protein (CRP) as well as indicators of how lipids are processed in the blood will be measured at the end of each dietary phase.
