Higher plasma lipopolysaccharide concentrations are associated with less favorable phenotype in overweight/obese men.

Purpose: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the outer membrane of gram-negative bacteria might be an inflammation trigger in adipose tissue. It has recently been proposed that there is a link between adipose tissue distribution and blood LPS. However, the number of studies on this topic is scarce, and further investigation in humans is required.

High-oleic peanuts: new perspective to attenuate glucose homeostasis disruption and inflammation related obesity.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of acute and daily consumption of high-oleic peanuts (HOP) on inflammation and glucose homeostasis in overweight/obese men.

Methods: In a 4-week randomized clinical trial, males with body mass index of 29.8 ± 2.

High-oleic peanuts increase diet-induced thermogenesis in overweight and obese men.

Background: Evidences suggest that nuts consumption can improve energy metabolism.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effects of acute ingestion of high-oleic and conventional peanuts on appetite, food intake, and energy metabolism in overweight and obese men.

Methods: Seventy one subjects (29.

Regular intake of high-oleic peanuts improves fat oxidation and body composition in overweight/obese men pursuing a energy-restricted diet.

Objective: Evaluate the effect of high-oleic and conventional peanuts within a hypocaloric-diet on energy metabolism and body composition.

Methods: This 4-week randomized clinical trial included males with BMI of 29.7 ± 2.
