The correlation between postprandial triglyceridemia and plasma viscosity was studied in 45 healthy young men. One-half, 23, of them carried out a heavy march lasting 2 hr while the other half, 22, rested in bed. Serum triglycerides and plasma viscosity were determined before the fat meal and 4 and 6 hr postprandially. Serum total proteins and hematocrits were measured simultaneously. Despite significantly higher postprandial triglyceridemia in the resting group no rise was seen in plasma viscosity, whereas, in the exercise group with a lower triglyceride level a significant elevation took place in plasma viscosity.
