"Deficiency and supplementation of {PUFA} in the diet have similar effects on the age-associated changes in rat-plasma cholesterol levels"^^ . "Levels of plasma cholesterol, particularly {LDL} cholesterol, increase with increasing age in humans and rodents. Feeding a fish oil-rich diet may exert hypocholesterolemic effects. The aim of this work was to examine the effects of a life-long administration of a PUFA-enriched diet and of a PUFA-deficient diet in male Sprague–Dawley rats on the age-associated increases in plasma cholesterol and triglycerides. Diet had small effects on body-weight, and had dramatic effects on liver phospholipids-fatty acids. Surprisingly, both diets counteracted the age-associated changes in plasma cholesterol and triglycerides similarly and benefits were already visible in adult rats."^^ . "2008" . "129" . "12" . .
