Santander, 2011-August They are statements of Dr. Pérez Jiménez, Professor of medicine at the University of Córdoba and scientific director of the IMIBIC (Maimonides Institute of biomedical research) at the school of nutrition Grande Covián of the Danone Institute in Santander UIMP.

Said “ foods have an immediate effect on health, against the idea of the single effect in the medium or long term admitted so far ”. For this reason, these effects must be measured after eating (postprandial State).

The research group of Dr. Pérez Jiménez has focused on the study of the postprandiales effects of fats, which are the nutrients which have obvious immediate effects on the State of health. They have thus shown that the lipids (fats) eaten first thing in the morning have an impact on the State of oxidation and inflammation of our arteries throughout the day, so a measurement in fasting can give artificial results. Studies have also shown that nutrients have also a modulating function in metabolism by means of which may even enable or disable genes in the postprandial State.

Pérez Jiménez has done research that shows for example, as the same amount of fat eaten for breakfast, produces different reactions of inflammation and blood oxidation during the day very different if that fat were butter or olive oil.

Dr. Pérez Jiménez.

The problem analysis in States after feeding, is standardize a method to evaluate the results of the analysis, since the effect of food on our organism are influenced by multiple factors among which cited the sex, age, State of health of the person and their genetics.

These studies are basic to get to modulate the postprandial lipemia (the action of on our arteries after eating fats) through the selection of foodstuffs, which will make a significant improvement in cardiovascular health through nutrition.
