Doctors Health Press Reports on Study: Heart-Healthy Linoleic Acid Levels Decrease with Age
Date:2/23/2013

Boston, MA (PRWEB) February 23, 2013

Doctors Health Press, a division of Lombardi Publishing Corporation, and publisher of various natural health newsletters, books, and reports, including the popular online Doctors Health Press e-Bulletin, is reporting on a new study finding that levels of linoleic acid, a heart-healthy fatty acid, decrease with age.

The researchers noted that higher linoleic acid levels have been associated with improved heart disease outcomes. For this reason, the researchers wanted to find out what happens to the body’s ability to utilize fatty acids as it grows older.

As the Doctors Health Press e-Bulletin article outlines, fatty acid profiles from about 160,000 patients (48% from males, 52% from females) were measured by the research team. Here’s what they found:

  • Compared to men, women generally had higher trans fat levels

  • Saturated (41% of total) and trans fats did not change much by age, whereas monounsaturated fats tended to rise slightly

  • Of the two major omega-6 polyunsaturates, arachidonic and linoleic acids, the former was unchanged acr
