Omega 6 fatty acids for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015
Omega 6 plays a vital role in many physiological functions but there is controversy concerning its effect on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. There is conflicting evidence whether increasing or decreasing omega 6 intake results in beneficial effects.The two primary objectives of this Cochrane review were to determine the effectiveness of:1 ...

Oxidised metabolites of the omega-6 fatty acid linoleic acid activate dFOXO [PDF]

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2020
Obesity-induced inflammation, or meta-inflammation, plays key roles in metabolic syndrome and is a significant risk factor in diabetes and cardiovascular disease. To investigate causal links between obesity, meta-inflammation, and insulin signaling we established aDrosophilamodel to determine how elevated dietary fat and changes in the levels and ...

The omega-6/omega-3 fatty acid ratio: health implications

open access: yesOléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2010
Today, Western diets are characterized by a higher omega-6 and a lower omega-3 fatty acid intake, whereas during the Paleolithic period when human’s genetic profile was established, there was a balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.

Maternal intake of fatty acids during pregnancy and allergies in the offspring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fatty acids (FA) are known to have a number of immunological effects and, accordingly, may play a role in the development of allergic diseases. We investigated the effect of maternal intake of FA during pregnancy on the risk of allergic rhinitis, wheeze ...
