Association between saturated fatty acid intake with low density lipoprotein cholesterol and central obesity

Human studies suggest that reducing dietary saturated fatty acids (SFAs) via replacing it with unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) has a beneficial effect on fasting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)(1). Moderate positive associations were also evident between changes in TC, LDL-C, and non-HDL-...

Description
Summary:Human studies suggest that reducing dietary saturated fatty acids (SFAs) via replacing it with unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) has a beneficial effect on fasting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)(1). Moderate positive associations were also evident between changes in TC, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C with body fat mass (rs=0.31–0.35, p < 0.05). [...]the change in android lean mass was negatively correlated with the change in HDL-C (rs=0.43, p < 0.01) whilst the change in total lean body mass was positively associated with the TC: [...]replacement of dietary SFA with UFA was found to have a beneficial effect by reducing central obesity and CVD risk markers in healthy men.
