BACKGROUND Little is known about the relation of the dietary intake of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, ie, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) from fatty fish and alpha-linolenic acid from vegetable oils, with ischemic heart disease among older adults. OBJECTIVE We investigated the associations of plasma phospholipid concentrations of DHA, EPA, and alpha-linolenic acid...

UNLABELLED In a randomized, double-blinded, controlled clinical trial, participants with peripheral arterial disease (75% hypertensive) consumed 30 g of milled flaxseed/d for 6 months. The flaxseed group exhibited significant reductions in systolic (-10 mm Hg) and diastolic (-7 mm Hg) blood pressure. Flaxseed contains the n3 fatty acid α-linolenic acid. Plasma α-linolenic acid increased with in...

The fatty acid composition of lymphocytes, and other immune cells, is altered according to the fatty acid composition of the diet and this alters the capacity of those cells to produce eicosanoids, such as prostaglandin E2, which are involved in immune-regulation. A high fat diet can impair lymphocyte function. Cell culture and animal feeding studies indicate that oleic, linoleic, conjugated li...

Wild berry varieties are widely distributed in Canada and mainly used by the indigenous population as food. Gooseberries blackcurrant two tart berries with strong taste that to make preserves such jams, jellies, wine. Phenolic compounds fatty acids predominant bioactive metabolites present these berries. Recently, researchers more interested exploring fruits for functional properties benefit hu...
