ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

High incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in South Asia is linked to genetic predisposition and diets high in saturated fatty acids (SFAs). Increased CVD prevalence correlates with rising palm oil consumption in some South Asian countries, where coconut oil and palm olein oil are primary SFA sources.

OBJECTIVE:

Compare the effects of coconut oil and palm olein oil on serum lipoprotein lipids and biochemical parameters in healthy adults.

METHODS:

A sequential feeding crossover clinical trial with two feeding periods of 8 weeks each was conducted among 40 healthy adults. Participants were provided palm olein oil in the first feeding period followed by coconut oil with a 16-week washout period in between. The outcomes measured were the difference in serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), TC/HDL-C ratio, triglycerides (TG), very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and liver enzymes.

RESULTS:

Thirty-seven participants completed the study. LDL-C decreased by 13.0 % with palm olein oil (p < 0.001) and increased by 5.6 % with coconut oil (p = 0.044), showing a significant difference (p < 0.001). TC decreased by 9.9 % with palm olein oil (p < 0.001) and increased by 4.0 % with coconut oil (p = 0.044).

CONCLUSION:

Palm olein oil consumption resulted in more favorable changes in lipid-related CVD risk factors (TC, LDL-C, TCHDL-C, and FPG) compared to coconut oil. Clinical Trial Registry number and website where it was obtained (SLCTR/2019/034); https//slctr.lk/trials/slctr-2019-034.
