The effect of standardized food intake on the association between BMI and 1H-NMR metabolites.
In this study, comprising 153 participants (mean age 63 years; mean BMI 27kg/m2), researchers analyzed the effect of a standardized liquid meal (SLM) on metabolite levels and how the SLM influenced the association between metabolites and BMI.
Results found that many metabolites, including glycolysis related metabolites, multiple amino acids, LDL diameter, VLDL and HDL lipid concentration changed within 35 minutes after a standardized liquid meal (SLM), similarly for all individuals.
