Individuals with obesity, in particular those with intra-abdominal visceral fat accumulation, are known to have various complications, such as hyperlipidaemia, impaired glucose tolerance, hyperinsulinaemia and hypertension, leading to the development of coronary heart disease. Post-prandial hyperlipidaemia has repeatedly been shown to be an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease. The aim of the present study was to investigate post-prandial lipoprotein metabolism in subjects with excessive visceral fat accumulation.
