Associations between Dietary Carbohydrate Intakes, Fatty Acid Oxidation Rates, and Sites of Ectopic Fat Deposition Over Two Years in Persons with Treated HIV
These findings support the relationship between dietary carbohydrate intake, fat oxidation rate, and fat mobilization to reduce ectopic lipid deposition in persons with HIV. Although modest changes in dietary intakes show potential for improving metabolic flexibility and body composition among individuals on long-term ART, some organs and tissues may not respond in tandem with other depots of ectopic fat.
