چکیده

Beef and lamb, are a food category with positive and negative nutritional attributes. Rumi‐ nant meats are major sources for many bioactive compounds including iron, zinc and B vita‐ mins. However they are associated with nutrients and nutritional profiles that are considered negative including high levels of saturated fatty acids (SFA) and cholesterol. It is well know that the low PUFA/SFA and high n-6/n-3 ratio of meats contribute to the imbal‐ ance in the in the fatty acid intake of today consumers [1]. Consumers are becoming more aware of the relationships between diet and health and this has increased consumer interest in the nutritional value of foods. Nutritionist advisers recommended a higher intake of poly‐ unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially n-3 PUFA at the expense of n-6 PUFA.

Dietary conjugated linoleic acid and body composition.

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a group of positional and geometric isomers of conjugated dienoic derivatives of linoleic acid. The major dietary source of CLA for humans is ruminant meats, such as beef and lamb, and dairy products, such as milk and cheese. The major isomer of CLA in natural food is cis-9,trans-11 (c9,t11). The commercial preparations contain approximately equal amounts of c9...

Conjugated linoleic acid-enriched beef production.

Canadian beef consumption is approximately 31 kg per annum, or a third of all meats consumed. Beef is a nutrient-rich food, providing good quality protein, vitamins B-6 and B-12, niacin, iron, and zinc. However, animal fats have gained the reputation of being less healthy. The identification of the anticarcinogenic effects of beef extracts due to the presence of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) h...

Effect of dietary conjugated linoleic acid on the composition of egg yolk lipids.

Forty-eight 27-wk-old White Leghorn hens were assigned randomly to four diets containing 0, 1.25, 2.5, or 5.0% conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Hens were fed the CLA diets for 2 wk before eggs were collected for the study. Classes of egg yolk lipids were separated, and fatty acid concentrations in total lipid, triglyceride (TG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and phosphatidylcholine (PC) were an...

Effect of dietary fatty acids on incorporation of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid in lamb, beef and pork meat: a review

Inspired by the health conscious consumer, several studies in meat producing domesticated animals have been completed that have aimed at increasing the polyunsaturated fatty acid content, and in particular the n-3 or -3 long chain fatty acids, as well as the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) content in intramuscular fat of beef, lamb and pork meat. Increasing the n-3 content in animal meats can be...

Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Dietary Beef

Introduction Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a naturally occurring trans fat, is commonly found in ruminant animal sources such as beef, lamb, and dairy products (e.g., milk and cheese). Over the past two decades a wealth of research, mainly from in vitro and experimental animal studies and limited human investigations, has examined potential health benefits of CLA. This research on the biologi...
