High meat-product consumption has been related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, previous results suggest the benefits of consuming reduce fat meat products on lipoproteins. Present study aims to assess the effect of consuming reduced fat-Pâté and Frankfurter on some anthropometric and inflammatory markers (e.g. body fat and tumor necrotic factor-alpha (TNFα), respectively) in male volunteers at increased CVD risk. Eighteen male volunteers with at least two CVD risk factors were enrolled in a cross-over controlled study. These report shows preliminary data obtained through the first phase of the study where volunteers consumed reduced fat pork-products (RF). Looking for specific target, the effects were also tested among volunteers with different initial LDL-cholesterol levels (< and ≥3.36 mmol/L). RF products decreased TNFα 25.6% (p < 0.01) and the body fat mass 2% (p < 0.05) in all volunteers. In volunteers with low initial LDL-cholesterol levels this reduction was significant for TNFα (27%, p < 0.05) and body fat mass (4.8%; p < 0.05). Results suggest the benefits of consuming RF products; however, the effects on body fat were small and belong to a small sample of volunteers. More studies are needed to clarify mechanisms involved in order to ascertain “targets” subjects.
