Bioactive compounds in foods: their role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and cancer
Penny M. Kris-Etherton,Kari D Hecker,Andrea Bonanome,Stacie M. Coval,Amy E. Binkoski,Kirsten F Hilpert,Amy E. Griel,Terry D. Etherton +7 more
TL;DR: Many bioactive compounds are extranutritional constituents that typically occur in small quantities in foods and are grouped accordingly as phenolic compounds, including their subcategory, flavonoids as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyunsaturated fatty acids in the food chain in the United States
Penny M. Kris-Etherton,Denise Shaffer Taylor,Shaomei Yu-Poth,Peter Huth,Kristin Moriarty,Valerie Fishell,Rebecca L Hargrove,Guixiang Zhao,Terry D. Etherton +8 more
TL;DR: Alternative strategies, such as food enrichment and the use of biotechnology to manipulate the EPA and DHA as well as ALA contents of the food supply, will become increasingly important in increasing n-3 fatty acid intake in the US population.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-monounsaturated fatty acid diets lower both plasma cholesterol and triacylglycerol concentrations.
Penny M. Kris-Etherton,Thomas A. Pearson,Ying Wan,Rebecca L Hargrove,Kristin Moriarty,Valerie Fishell,Terry D. Etherton +6 more
TL;DR: A high-MUFA, cholesterol-lowering diet may be preferable to a low-fat diet because of more favorable effects on the CVD risk profile.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of the National Cholesterol Education Program's Step I and Step II dietary intervention programs on cardiovascular disease risk factors: a meta-analysis
Shaomei Yu-Poth,Guixiang Zhao,Terry D. Etherton,Mary C. Naglak,Satya S. Jonnalagadda,Penny M. Kris-Etherton +5 more
TL;DR: Step I and Step II dietary interventions have multiple beneficial effects on important cardiovascular disease risk factors and exercise resulted in greater decreases in TC, LDL cholesterol, and triacylglycerol and prevented the decrease in HDL cholesterol associated with low-fat diets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary α-Linolenic Acid Reduces Inflammatory and Lipid Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Hypercholesterolemic Men and Women
Guixiang Zhao,Terry D. Etherton,Keith R Martin,Sheila G. West,Peter J. Gillies,Penny M. Kris-Etherton +5 more
TL;DR: ALA appears to decrease CVD risk by inhibiting vascular inflammation and endothelial activation beyond its lipid-lowering effects.
