[Effect of a monounsaturated fatty acids-enriched diet on the clinical and metabolic parameters in type 2 diabetic patients].

It was investigated the influence of a diet supplemented with monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) on dynamic of glycaemia, lipid profile, blood pressure and composition of fatty acids of erythrocytes in type 2 diabetic patients. Traditional 9 diet was supplemented with olive oil (30 grams per day). The results investigations indicated that a MUFA-enriched diet has beneficial effects on glycaemia, lipid metabolism and blood pressure. It was noted the tendency to increase of content of MUFA in membrane of erythrocytes under the influence of a MUFA-enriched diet.
