In summary, carbohydrate restriction and weight loss improved the lipoprotein profile of individuals with metabolic syndrome by reducing plasma oxLDL, and modifying the distribution of lipoprotein subclasses towards a less atherogenic phenotype. Further, the inclusion of whole eggs provides additional benefits compared to yolk-free egg substitute by increasing large HDL particles, HDL and LDL diameters, and LCAT activity, while reducing total VLDL and medium VLDL particles. Thus, results from this study suggest that incorporating daily egg intake into a moderately carbohydrate-restricted diet provides additional benefits for the atherogenic lipoprotein profile associated with MetS.
