The American Journal of Cardiology (May 1969), 23 (5), pg. 719-722 Sensitization by corn oil for the production of cardiac necroses by various steroids and sodium salts Hans Selye; Árpád Somogyi; Gaston Côté In the rat, the production of extensive and usually fatal myocardial necroses by fluorocortisol or desoxycorticosterone in combination with Na2HPO4 is greatly [...]
At birth, the baby’s mitochondria contain a phospholipid, cardiolipin, containing palmitic acid, but as the baby eats foods containing polyunsaturated fatty acids, the palmitic acid in cardiolipin is replaced by the unsaturated fats. As the cardiolipin becomes more unsaturated, it becomes less stable, and less able to support the activity of the crucial respiratory enzyme, [...]
Animals that naturally have a relatively low level of highly unsaturated fats in their tissues have the greatest longevity. -Ray Peat, PhD Trends Neurosci. 2004 Oct;27(10):595-600. Free radicals and aging. Barja G. Aging is characterized by decrements in maximum function and accumulation of mitochondrial DNA mutations, which are best observed in organs such as the [...]
Lipids. 1997 May;32(5):535-41. Lipid peroxidation during n-3 fatty acid and vitamin E supplementation in humans. Allard JP, Kurian R, Aghdassi E, Muggli R, Royall D. The purpose of this study was to investigate in healthy humans the effect of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake, alone or in combination with dL-alpha-tocopherol acetate (vitamin [...]
by Barry Groves http://www.second-opinions.co.uk/immunity2.html Polyunsaturated fats (PUFs) are greatly immunosuppressive. The first person to suggest that polyunsaturated fats suppress the immune system was Dr E A Newsholme of Oxford University, England.[i] What Newsholme wrote was that when our bodies get sufficient nutrition, our diet includes immunosuppressive PUFs which make us prone to infection by bacteria [...]
Understanding the function of fats within different organisms is paramount. It’s a simple idea, yet many really smart people with lots of initials behind their name seem to never think about such things. Don’t let education get in the way of your learning. There is much marketing momentum behind some fats, like fish oils and [...]
