Copenhagen Obesity Risk Assessment Study
Copenhagen Obesity Risk Assessment Study - A Double Blind Randomized Dietary Intervention Study Examining the Effect of a High Intake of Trans Fatty Acids on Abdominal Obesity and Risk Markers of Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease.

The aim of the present study is to assess the effect of a high intake of industrially produced trans fatty acids for 16 weeks on abdominal obesity and risk markers of type 2 diabetes and heart disease in healthy, moderately overweight, postmenopausal women.
