Studies in people with diabetes have also indicated that modified fat (high MUFA) diets are clearly more beneficial than low fat diets in the effects on triacylglycerols and HDL cholesterol and they also favorably influence blood pressure, coagulation, endothelial activation, inflammation, and thermogenic capacity. Modified fat (high MUFA) diets therefore reduce heart disease risk. Moreover, when the energy density is controlled through inclusion of plenty of fruit and vegetables, modified fat (high MUFA) diets do not promote obesity. One final benefit is better acceptance and compliance long term.
