American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 03/05/07
Guixiang Zhao, et al. – Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. We previously reported that a diet high in alpha linolenic acid (ALA) reduces lipid and inflammatory cardiovascular disease risk factors in hypercholesterolemic subjects...Conclusion: Increased intakes of dietary ALA elicit antiinflammatory effects by inhibiting IL-6, IL-1beta, and TNF-alpha production in cultured PBMCs. Changes in PBMC ALA and eicosapentaenoic acid (derived from dietary ALA) are associated with beneficial changes in TNF-alpha release
