The linoleic acid and trans fatty acids of margarines

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1979
Fifty brands of margarine were analysed for cis-polyunsaturated acids by lipoxidase, for trans fatty acid by infared spectroscopy, and for fatty acid composition by gas-liquid chromatography. High concentrations of trans fatty acids tended to be associated with low concentrations of linoleic acid.

Metabolic aspects of trans fatty acids

Clinical Nutrition, 1997
The consumption of trans isomers of unsaturated fatty acids has been associated withuntoward metabolic effects. Several clinical investigations demonstrated that trans fatty acids increase plasma LDL-cholesterol and lipoprotein (a) and reduce HDL-cholesterol concentrations.

Trans Fatty Acids

Journal of Chemical Education, 1997
The overall similarity in shape between the trans and saturated fatty acids is evident and helps to explain their similar effects in organisms.

Trans Fatty Acids and Cardiovascular Disease

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2006
Trans fats-fatty acids having at lease one double bond in the trans configuration-form during partial hydrogenation of vegetable oils that is intended to convert them into semisolid fats to be used in commercial cooking. These products have a long shelf life, are stable during deep frying, and are semisolids that are conveniently used in baked goods ...

Trans fatty acids: A cause for concern?

International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition, 1995
The recommendation to reduce total and saturated fat is incorporated into the dietary guidelines for the general population in many western countries. In addition, dietary modification to reduce substantially the intake of saturated fats is a cornerstone of treatment in the hyperlipidaemias.

Influence of Trans Fatty Acids on Health

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2004
The contribution of dietary trans fatty acids (TFAs) on the risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD) has recently gained further support due to the results from large, prospective, population-based studies. Compared to saturated fat, TFAs are, gram to gram, associated with a considerably (2.5- to >10-fold) higher risk increment for IHD.

Trans fatty acids and blood lipids

Atherosclerosis Supplements, 2006
Intake of trans-unsaturated fatty acids (TFA) has been consistently shown in multiple and rigorous randomized trials to have adverse effects on blood lipids, most notably on the LDL:HDL cholesterol ratio, which is a strong marker of cardiovascular risk. When a mixture of TFA isomers obtained by partial hydrogenation of vegetable oils is used to replace

Trans-Fatty Acids and Colon Cancer

Nutrition and Cancer, 2001
Trans-fatty acids have been hypothesized to be carcinogenic, although there are limited data in humans testing this hypothesis. In this study, we examine the association between trans-fatty acids and colon cancer using data from a case (n = 1,993)-control (n = 2,410) study conducted in Utah, Northern California, and Minnesota.
