Effects of butter oil blends with increased concentrations of stearic, oleic and linolenic acid on blood lipids in young adults

Article Abstract:

Fats enriched with rapeseed oil (oleic and linolenic acids) appear to be equally effective in reducing plasma cholesterol and LDL cholesterol compared with butter/grapeseed oil, according to research designed to assess a more satisfactory effect on plasma lipoprotein profile of spreads based on dairy fat. There was a 7% fall in plasma cholesterol through replacing butter/grapeseed oil with rapeseed oil enriched fats. This is a significant result, given that it is widely assumed that a 1% fall in plasma cholesterol leads to a 2% fall in CDH risk.

Coenzyme Q10 in health and disease

Article Abstract:

The coenzyme Q10 acts as an electron carrier in the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The effects and safety of Q10 as a dietary supplement are discussed. Relatively low rates of Q10 in myocardial tissue have been reported in different cardiovascular diseases, and positive clinical and haemodynamic effects of oral Q10 have been seen in double-blind trials. No significant adverse effects have been reported from daily supplements of up to 200 mg for 6-12 months and 100mg for up to 6 y.

Lipophilic antioxidants and polyunsaturated fatty acids in lipoprotein classes: distribution and interaction

Article Abstract:

Research describing the distribution of lipoprotein CoQ10, polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E is presented, with focus on the health effects of their interactions. It is concluded that it is safe to take three different lipoproteins together because they undergo different metabolic processes.
