Randomized trial examines blood coagulation effects of various dietary fats, indicating potential health impacts.

This research aims to explore how different types of dietary fats affect blood coagulation.
Compared the effects of butterfat, corn oil, hydrogenated coconut oil, and marine fish oil on blood coagulability.
Analyzed serum cholesterol levels and coagulation metrics post-meal.
High-fat meals increased blood coagulability overall. The specific effects varied by type of fat consumed.
Unsaturated fatty acids in marine fish oil showed potential benefits in reducing blood coagulability.

Keys et al. (1957) studied this question.
