The proposed study is a randomized, 2-parallel arm controlled feeding study. Subjects will be fed one of two weight maintenance diets (refined grain and whole grain) for 6 weeks, followed by a 6 week controlled weight loss period where subjects are fed the same diets, but at a reduced calorie level, designed to elicit weight loss (~2 lbs per week). Diets for both groups will have the same nutrient profile (percent of calories from fat, protein, carbohydrates, etc.); however, the whole grain (WG) group will substitute whole grains for refined grains in their grain intake (breads, tortillas, cereals, etc.). The WG group will be expected to take in 6-9 servings of whole grains per day on both diets. Plasma endpoints will be measured at baseline and at the end of the 6-week diet periods. Blood samples also will be taken at the mid-point of each period and held for analysis if deemed appropriate after initial data is reviewed. Endo-PAT will be conducted at baseline and at the end of each diet period as well as DEXA and MRI testing.
