Interventions

Intralipid 20%other

Lean and obese normotensive subjects will receive Intralipid 20% infusion. Intralipid is an oil-in-water emulsion derived from egg phospholipids, soybean, and glycerol. The Intralipid 20% long-chain triglyceride emulsion contains: 200 g of soy bean oil; 12 g of egg yolk; 25 g of glycerol. The emulsion is composed of the following free fatty acids (FFAs): linoleic acid: 50%, oleic acid: 26%, palmitic acid: 10%, stearic acid: 9%, egg yolk, phospholipids: 3.5% It will be given intravenously at 20 ml/hr (96 g/24 h) for 24 hours.

Normal Salineother

Lean and obese normotensive subjects will receive normal saline at 20 ml/hr for 24 hours.

Oral fat loadother

Lean and obese normotensive subjects will receive an oral fat load at 96 g/24hr. The oral liquid fat load will be given in equal amounts (16 g) every 4 hours (total 96 g over 24 hours).
