Objective To examine the associations between dietary intake and tissue biomarkers of
alpha linolenic acid (ALA) and risk of mortality from all causes, cardiovascular disease …

Background Current evidence on associations between intakes of linoleic acid (LA), the
predominant n–6 (ω-6) fatty acid, and mortality is inconsistent and has not been summarized …

Background—Previous studies on intake of linoleic acid (LA), the predominant n-6 fatty acid,
and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk have generated inconsistent results. We performed a …

Replacement of saturated fat by the major dietary polyunsaturated fat linoleic acid reduces
blood cholesterol concentrations and the risk of coronary artery disease. However, there is …

Objective: To determine whether dietary supplementation with α linolenic acid (ALA) can
modify established and emerging cardiovascular risk markers. Design: Systematic review …

Background: Prior studies of α-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-derived omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid,
and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk have generated inconsistent results. Objective: We …
