Biomarkers of dietary PUFA intake in childhood and adolescence in relation to cardiometabolic risk factors in young adulthood: a prospective cohort study in Sweden
Plasma phospholipid proportions of LA and ALA, biomarkers of vegetable oil intake, during childhood and adolescence were inversely associated with measures of obesity and cardiometabolic health in young adulthood, with a potential sex difference. These findings accord with short-term feeding trials suggesting a possible preventive role of LA on body fat accumulation.
