Metabolic adaptation
Low-carbohydrate conditions resulted in twofold higher free fatty acid concentrations compared to high-carbohydrate conditions.
Practitioners should note that low-carbohydrate diets can lead to increased free fatty acid levels, which may influence fat metabolism.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
FFA concentrations were twofold higher after LOW- vs. HIGH-CHO (P < 0.05).
Why this rating
The study design includes controlled dietary conditions and measurements.
