Abstract in brief

  • The study found that a modified Palaeolithic-type diet, high in protein and monounsaturated fats with limited carbs and saturated fats, reduced liver triglyceride levels by nearly 50% in postmenopausal women, but did not significantly change fat levels in muscle.
  • Participants experienced notable health improvements, including a 25% decrease in energy intake, weight loss, and reductions in BMI, waist and hip measurements, blood pressure, and several blood lipid and glucose markers, though overall insulin sensitivity remained unchanged.
  • The findings suggest that this diet has specific effects on reducing fat accumulation in liver tissue, which may help link diet composition to reduced risks of cardiovascular disease associated with ectopic fat in postmenopausal women.]
