Trans fatty acid intake is associated with insulin sensitivity but independently of inflammation

Abstract: High saturated and trans fatty acid intake, the typical dietary pattern of Western populations, favors a proinflammatory status that contributes to generating insulin resistance (IR). We examined whether the consumption of these fatty acids was associated with IR and inflammatory markers. In this cross-sectional study, 127 non-diabetic individuals were allocated to a group without IR and 56 to another with IR, defined as homeostasis model assessment-IR (HOMA-IR) >2.71. Diet was assessed using 24-h food recalls… Show more

“…This particular pattern was nominally associated with increased levels of insulin, a finding consistent with current literature, suggesting meat consumption to be associated with hyperinsulinaemia and type 2 diabetes [38,55]. The total fat, mainly consisting of the saturated fat of the meat and the trans fatty acids of the fried potatoes, is believed to contribute to the increased prevalence of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes [56][57][58].…”

“…Chronically excessive triacylglycerol accumulation in tissues such as the liver, muscle, and pancreatic beta cells leads to a protective response involving adaptation of the adipocytes, and this response includes activation of several inflammatory pathways that promote adipose tissue insulin resistance [34]. …”

“…It has been estimated that 72,000 cardiovascular disease-related deaths per year could be averted by a 1% reduction in the intake of industrially produced TFAs [8]. Furthermore, high TFA intake is generally considered as a risk factor for weight gain [9], although the evidence for the relationship between TFA intake and diabetes is inconsistent [10][11][12][13][14]. A recent meta-analysis confirmed that TFA intake is associated with all-cause mortality and coronary heart disease mortality [15].…”
