Abstract
The cardioprotective properties of linoleic acid (LA), a major n–6 (ω-6) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), have been recognized, but less is known about its associations with other causes of death. Relatively little is also known about how the minor n–6 PUFAs—γ-linolenic acid (GLA), dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA), and arachidonic acid (AA)—relate to mortality risk. We investigated the associations of serum n–6 PUFAs, an objective biomarker of...
