The consumption of macadamia nuts did not have significant effects on body weight, plasma lipids, and glycaemic parameters in overweight and obese adults. Although macadamia nuts increased total fat and monounsaturated fat intake, there was no change in saturated fat intake. Despite a slight reduction in plasma total cholesterol and LDL-C, there were no significant changes in weight or percent body fat.
We sought to examine the effects of daily consumption of macadamia nuts on body weight and composition, plasma lipids and glycaemic parameters in a free-living environment in overweight and obese adults at elevated cardiometabolic risk. Utilising a randomised cross-over design, thirty-five adults with abdominal obesity consumed their usual diet plus macadamia nuts (similar to 15 % of daily calories) for 8 weeks (intervention) and their usual diet without nuts for 8 weeks (control), with a 2-week washout. Body composition was determined by bioelectrical impedance; dietary intake was assessed with 24-h dietary recalls. Consumption of macadamia nuts led to increased total fat and MUFA intake while SFA intake was unaltered. With mixed model regression analysis, no significant changes in mean weight, BMI, waist circumference, percent body fat or glycaemic parameters, and non-significant reductions in plasma total cholesterol of 2 center dot 1 % (-4 center dot 3 mg/dl; 95 % CI -14 center dot 8, 6 center dot 1) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) of 4 % (-4 center dot 7 mg/dl; 95 % CI -14 center dot 3, 4 center dot 8) were observed. Cholesterol-lowering effects were modified by adiposity: greater lipid lowering occurred in those with overweight v. obesity, and in those with less than the median percent body fat. Daily consumption of macadamia nuts does not lead to gains in weight or body fat under free-living conditions in overweight or obese adults; non-significant cholesterol lowering occurred without altering saturated fat intake of similar magnitude to cholesterol lowering seen with other nuts.
