Accurate assessment of fat intake is essential to examine the relationships between diet and
disease risk but the process of estimating individual intakes of fat quality by dietary …

Several options are available for the biological assessment of dietary fatty acids. The type of
study (short or long-term), the metabolic characteristics and expected variability in the fatty …

Unlike other macronutrients such as protein, the amounts and types of fat in the human diet
vary tremendously across cultures and over time have changed significantly within …

Objective: To review the various biomarkers of dietary intakes of fatty acids in human
populations, their measurement, limitations and analytical considerations. Design: Review of …

Adipose tissue fatty acids, it has been proposed, reflect dietary intake. Using data from a

In a public health perspective these results, from both observational and intervention
studies, underline the importance of fat quality in the diet for the development of a number of …

Objective: To test the null-hypothesis that no age difference in adipose tissue fatty acid
composition exists independent of dietary fat intake. Design: A cross-sectional survey of …

Background: Biomarkers can provide a more accurate measure of long-term intake than can
dietary questionnaires. Objective: The objective was to identify which adipose tissue fatty …

Fatty acid composition of human adipose tissue is not consistent. Factors such as, sample
