Biomarkers of Fat and Fatty Acid Intake'

ABSTRACT Unlike other macronutrients such as protein, the amounts and types of fat in the human diet vary tremendously across cultures and over time have changed significantly within Westernized countries. Studies of the effect that fat sources, fat amounts and changes in fat intake have on human disease are extremely difficult to conduct with traditional dietary assessment methods for a number of reasons, These include the hidden nature of many fats, the variation in fatty acids contained in foods and feed and the sensitivity of individuals to ...
