Repeated measurements were made in 8 adults of factor VII coagulant activity (VIIc) and fibrinogen concentration (two haemostatic variables associated with cardiovascular mortality), together with factor VII concentration, factor X, prothrombin, and serum cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations, while the usual diet was recorded by precise weighing over 12-14 days. In 6 subjects measurements were continued while low-fat and high-fat diets were taken for a further 2 and 3 weeks respectively. Plasma VIIc was related positively and independently to fat and protein intake, whereas factor VII concentration was associated only with protein consumption. In a second study, consumption of 50% extra energy for one day increased VIIc significantly when taken mainly as fat but not when taken mostly as carbohydrate. The character of the VIIc response to fat intake suggested an association with post-prandial lipaemia. A high fat intake may lead not only to coronary atheroma but also to fibrin deposition and thrombus formation through direct activation of the coagulation system.
