Dietary factors may affect lipid metabolism and thus impact cardiovascular disease development. The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of 8 wk ingestion of mineralized water compared with control on fasting and postprandial lipoproteins levels in hyperlipidemic men. Subjects (N=12) consumed mineralized water (Saint Yorre) or low mineralized Water (Ogeu) in random order for 8‐wk periods, separated by a 1‐wk washout. Lipoprotein lipids were assessed prior to (fasting) and following a standard meal for 8 h (postprandial). Fasting and postprandial plasma triglycerides (TG) were decreased following mineralized water compared to control (p<0.01 and <0.05, respectively). This decrease was related to a significant decrease in fasting and postprandial levels of very low‐density lipoprotein (VLDL) TG (respectively p<0.01 and p<0.05) and a slight decrease in fasting total cholesterol (TC) (p<0.1). High‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C) increased postprandially (p<0.05) following the mineralized water compared to the low mineralized water. The reduction in postprandial concentrations of VLDL TG and the increase in HDL‐C suggest improvements in liver lipid metabolism and postprandial lipemia, which may favorably affect cardiovascular health.
