Journal Article
Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids and eicosanoids: potential effects on the modulation of inflammatory and immune cells: an overview.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards Establishing Dietary Reference Intakes for Eicosapentaenoic and Docosahexaenoic Acids
William S. Harris,Dariush Mozaffarian,Michael Lefevre,Cheryl D. Toner,John Colombo,Stephen C. Cunnane,Joanne M. Holden,David M. Klurfeld,Martha Clare Morris,Jay Whelan +9 more
TL;DR: The Technical Committee on Dietary Lipids of the International Life Sciences Institute North America sponsored a workshop to consider whether the body of evidence specific to the major chronic diseases in the United States--coronary heart disease, cancer, and cognitive decline--had evolved sufficiently to justify reconsideration of DRI for EPA+.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acids in cardiovascular health and disease: a comprehensive update.
Seth J. Baum,Penny M. Kris-Etherton,Walter C. Willett,Alice H. Lichtenstein,Lawrence L. Rudel,Kevin C. Maki,Jay Whelan,Christopher E. Ramsden,Robert C. Block +8 more
TL;DR: There is some new evidence that is questioning the health benefits of even MUFAs and PUFAs, and in a few recent studies investigators have also failed to demonstrate expected cardiovascular benefits of marine-derived omega-3 fatty acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Innovative Dietary Sources of N-3 Fatty Acids
Jay Whelan,Cheryl Rust +1 more
TL;DR: N-3 PUFAs are being incorporated into nontraditional food sources because of advances in the technology to safely enrich/fortify the authors' food supply and because of newer technologies (microencapsulation and improved processing techniques that ensure stability and preserve the integrity of these unstable fatty acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary unsaturated fatty acids: interactions and possible needs in relation to eicosanoid synthesis.
TL;DR: The need for data concerning the appropriate intake of dietary n-6 and n-3 PUFAs to modulate arachidonic acid and eicosanoid synthesis and to minimize possible adverse reactions is discussed.
