Indeed, it is predictable that chronic consumption of Orlistat® led to a depletion of essential fatty acids with time, therefore unstructured MAG containing LC-PUFA can be an option as a source of LC-PUFA for patients under Orlistat® treatment and hypothetically for subjects with other type of maldigestion/malabsorption. Potential applications of such concept are therefore related to disease conditions comprising low lipid digestion due to lipase activity insufficiency.\n\nIn the present study, in order to see the response information for eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) delivery, EPA will be provided either as a mixture of free monoacylglycerols or as triacylglycerol (TAG). The erythrocyte and plasma fatty acid composition from subjects under Orlistat® consumption will be analyzed.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age 18-65\n* Sex female\n* Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30kg/m2 and \\< 40kg/m2\n* Subjects willing to undergo treatment with Orlistat® (Xenical).\n* Having obtained her written informed consent before any study related procedure including the pre-inclusion period.\n\nSubject exclusion criteria:\n\n* Binge eating disorder\n* Any other weight loss treatment(s) within the last 3 months\n* Vegetarians\n* History of metabolic, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal diseases\n* Obstructed bile duct\n* Diseases that could interfere with intestinal absorption History of abdominal / gastric surgery (except appendicectomy)\n* Use of drugs or illicit substances\n* Consumption of alcohol \\> 50 gr/week\n* Any other clinically significant abnormalities on screening laboratory evaluation (creatinine, Na, K, urique acide, ASAT, ALAT, Ph.
