Diet and body lipid composition: lessons from animal and human experiments
1992
Dutra-de-Oliveira, J.E.
It is accepted that atherosclerosis begins early in life and will develop over several years. The type of diet fed to young rats and other mammals plays a role in the regulation of adult lipid homeostasis. Foods vary in fatty acid content. The importance of diet on lipid profile has been demonstrated in several animal studies and in different human population groups. Bridging the effect of early diet and later adult cardiovascular disease deserves decisive collaboration among different specialists, as well as preventive dietary intervention based on recent advances from food composition and dietotherapy.
