Background: Increasing dietary fat intake is expected to improve α-tocopherol bioavailability,
which could be beneficial for improving α-tocopherol status, especially in cohorts at high
cardiometabolic risk who fail to meet dietary α-tocopherol requirements. Objective: Our
objective was to assess dose-dependent effects of dairy fat and metabolic syndrome (MetS)
health status on α-tocopherol pharmacokinetics in plasma and lipoproteins. Design: A
randomized, crossover, double-blind study was conducted in healthy and MetS adults (n …
