Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It was not observed incresed energy expenditure after 1, 2 and 3 hours of coconut oil (1.02; 0.99 e 0.94 kcal/min) and olive oil intake. Also, it was not observed a greater fat oxidation after coconut oil and olive oil intake (42.7 vs 40.8 g/min) respectively. All assessment were realized by indirect calorimetry. | — |

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected a decrease in serum inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-17A, TNF-a) after olive oil intake verified by flow cytometry technique, using the kit Human Th1 / Th2 / Th17 CBA kit from the observation of a significant reduction in the concentrations of these cytokines after 3 hours of eating a meal containig olive oil.;There was no change in serum inflammatory cytokines evaluated over time.
