Mechanism of Hypocholesterolemic Effects of Monosaturated Fatty Acids

Connor, William E.

Abstract

This study examines the hypocholesterolemic effects of diets rich in monounsaturated fatty acids as compared to diets containing omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids or a low fat diet in subjects with primary hypercholesterolemia. The interaction of dietary cholesterol (50 and 600 mg/day) with these diets is also assessed in separate studies.
