“ Lauric acid (C12:0) increased apo B secretion by 32%, myristic acid (C14:0) by 41% (P<0.005), palmitic acid (C16:0) by 154% (P<0.025), and arachidic acid (C20:0) by 186% (P<0.005).”
“Increase in palmitic and lauric acid concentration was shown to increase the degree of participation of ADP/ATP antiporter and to decrease the degree of participation of aspartate/glutamate antiporter in uncoupling to the same extent.”
“The subjects consumed solid food diets and the authors managed an 8% of energy exchange between lauric and palmitic acid whereas other fatty acids were held relatively constant.”
