Omega-6 vegetable oils as a driver of coronary heart disease: the oxidized linoleic acid hypothesis
2018 Sep 26 Open Heart DiNicolantonio JJ, O’Keefe JH
The study concludes that elevated levels of linoleic acid, particularly from omega-6-rich vegetable oils, are positively associated with increased prevalence of diabetes, obesity, asthma, and coronary artery disease. The findings propose a comprehensive theory, the 'oxidised linoleic acid theory of coronary heart disease,' highlighting the role of linoleic acid in initiating the oxidation process of LDL particles, leading to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk. The study also suggests the potential use of 9-HODE levels as a novel risk factor for coronary heart disease.
