The book proposes a strategy for the prevention of NCDs and the management of population and personal health through the rational use of dietary fat. It covers the relationship between total lipids, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and NCDs, and other uncommon fatty acids, such as conjugated fatty acids, middle and short chain fatty acid, furan fatty acids, n-3 docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and structured fat.
Intended for nutrition researchers, dieticians, clinicians and others in academia who are focused on medicine, preventive medicine, public health and food science students, this valuable reference provides information that will assist readers in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, metabolic disorders, diabetes, neuropsychiatric diseases, and cancer by specifically managing dietary lipids.
- Offers an evidence-based, systematic review of dietary fat and fatty acids and health
- Provides extensive knowledge on the relationship between type and quantity of lipid, fatty acids and NCDs
- Proposes a strategy for the prevention of NCDs and the management of population and personal health through the rational use of dietary fat
Nutrition researchers, dieticians, clinicians, and others in academia focused on medicine, preventive medicine, public health and food science students
