Carbohydrate Intolerance and Lipemia

Abstract
The association between [human] carbohydrate intolerance and lipemic disorders was described and a pathophysiological classification based on set theory developed. There appears to be little evidence for a cause and effect relation between carbohydrate intolerance and endogenous lipemia (hypertriglyceridemia). One factor common to both, adiposity, may contribute to their frequent coexistence.
