Background We investigated whether food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) may be indicative of the serum composition of essential n ‐ 3 and n ‐ 6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in early pregnancy ...
, relative to n ‐ 6 fatty acids , which suggests room for improvement in the diets of US children. More research is needed to determine how increasing dietary intakes of n ‐ 3 PUFAs like DHA could benefit child ...
of these essential fatty acids (EFA) are required ( Lewin . 2005 ; Lucas . 2005 ). The ratio of n ‐ 6 to n ‐ 3 fatty acids in the diet is important as these two families of fatty acids compete for the same enzymes ...
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary ratios of n ‐ 6 : n ‐ 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on reproductive performance, fecal microbiota and nutrient digestibility of gestation ...

polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and n - 6 / n - 3 PUFA ratio. The relationship between serum and brain total n - 6 PUFAs was inconsistent among the two brain regions. No significant relationship was identified between ...
varies among species (Sargent et al. 1995). Imbalanced diets rich in n ‐ 6 fatty acids are linked to multiple disease pathologies that can be reduced through increased dietary intake of n ‐ 3 ...
The impact of the amount of dietary α‐linolenic acid (ALA) on its own tissue accumulation and conversion to longer n ‐ 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) remains controversial and may depend ...
), an essential fatty acid contained in large quantities in vegetable oil. Therefore, excessive ingestion of n - 6 PUFA may aggravate IBD.4 On the other hand, n - 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ( n - 3 PUFA) such as α ...
AbstractThis study investigates relations of maternal N - 3 and N - 6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) intake during pregnancy with offspring body mass index (BMI), height z-score and metabolic risk ...
