This invention relates to fat containing consumable food products comprising
-cyclodextrin. The food products have reduced levels of bioavailable fat
but have substantially the same fat, cholesterol and caloric content as a like
food without -cyclodextrin. The invention also relates to methods for reducing
the bioavailability of fats in fat containing food products without reducing caloric
intake as determined by bomb calorimetry and to methods for increasing high density
lipoproteins in a subject and reducing or controlling weight by administering the
food products of this invention.
