Higher intakes and blood levels of linoleic acid are associated with improved cardiometabolic health outcomes, supporting its beneficial role in cardiovascular prevention.
Jackson et al. (2024) conducted a review in Cardiometabolic health. Linoleic acid (LA) vs. Lower levels / saturated fatty acids and carbohydrates was evaluated. Higher intakes and blood levels of linoleic acid are associated with improved cardiometabolic health outcomes, including lower risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and type-2 diabetes.
