Effect of animal and industrial trans fatty acids on HDL and LDL cholesterol levels in humans - a quantitative review [PDF]
Background: Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower HDL cholesterol, raise LDL cholesterol, and increase the risk of coronary heart ...

Effect of a high intake of conjugated linoleic acid on lipoprotein levels in healthy human subjects [PDF]
Background -Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL ...

Dose-effect of dietary oleic acid: oleic acid is conditionally essential for some organs [PDF]
The minimum dietary intake of oleic acid that is indispensable to maintain a normal content of this fatty acid in several tissues (heart, muscle, kidney and testis) was determined in the rat. For this purpose, a dose-effect study was conducted using an experimental protocol with 7 groups of rats who received a diet in which the oleic acid level varied ...
