“…VLDL is a triglyceride-rich lipid moiety and the use of insulin decreases hepatic production of apolipoprotein B-100 rich VLDL1 and intestinal production of VLDL2, rich in apoprotein B-48 while also increasing hydrolysis of TG by LPL 114,115 . Insulin promotes storage of both glucose and fatty acids, thus a continuous infusion of insulin should reduce serum levels of both of these fuels 116,117 .
