متن کاملα-Linolenic acid, linoleic acid and heart failure in women.
α-Linolenic acid (18 : 3n-3) intake and linoleic acid (18 : 2n-6) intake have been associated with lower rates of CHD, though results have not been consistent. The relationship of these fatty acids with incident heart failure (HF) is not well established. We examined the hypothesis that women with higher intakes of 18 : 3n-3 and 18 : 2n-6 would have lower rates of HF hospitalisation and mortali...
متن کاملDietary α-linolenic acid, linoleic acid, and n-3 long-chain PUFA and risk of ischemic heart disease.
BACKGROUND n-3 (omega-3) PUFA has been proposed as having health-promoting effects, primarily in relation to ischemic heart disease (IHD). Whether these benefits can be achieved by both α-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n-3) and n-3 long-chain PUFA (LC-PUFA) is debatable. OBJECTIVE The objective was to examine the association between ALA intake and risk of IHD in healthy subjects and to see if this ...
متن کاملLinoleic acid content in adipose tissue and coronary heart disease.
The possibility of an inverse relation between essential fatty acids in adipose tissue, in particular linoleic acid, and mortality from coronary heart disease was studied by a cross sectional survey of random population samples of apparently healthy men aged 40-49 from four European regions with differing mortality from coronary heart disease. The proportion of linoleic acid in adipose tissue w...
متن کاملDietary -Linolenic Acid Intake and Risk of Sudden Cardiac Death and Coronary Heart Disease
Background— -Linolenic acid, an intermediate-chain n-3 fatty acid found primarily in plants, may decrease the risk of fatal coronary heart disease (CHD) through a reduction in fatal ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Methods and Results—We prospectively examined the association between dietary intake of -linolenic acid assessed via updated food-frequency questionnaires and ...
