Using intravenous and oral administration of stable isotope tracers, we will investigate the importance of altered fat absorption and altered whole body fat metabolism for the reduced postprandial systemic TAG concentrations in non-diabetic patients in weight stable phase after RYGB.

Time frame: 6 hours
Recovery of oral stable triacylglycerol isotope tracer in feces
An oral stable triacylglycerol isotope tracer will be administered during a high-fat liquid mixed meal test. Feces will be collected the following 4 days to determine the recovery of the tracer in feces.
Time frame: 4 days
