1/ "High concentrations of LA (either unoxidized or oxidized) appeared to exhibit cytotoxicity, as evidenced by the observed decrease in cell viability with increasing LA concentration.
2/ "In this case, the unoxidized LA appeared to have a bigger impact than the oxidized LA over most of the concentration range studied."
3/ Hmm... "However, the number and morphology of the lipoprotein particles formed depended on the oxidation state of the lipid: the lipoproteins formed in the presence of oxidized LA were smaller, more numerous, and more irregularly shaped...
4/ "...than those formed in the presence of unoxidized LA."
"...it is possible that the unoxidized and oxidized forms of LA had different effects on the “fusion” mechanism mentioned above thereby resulting in different sizes and types of lipoproteins being formed."
5/ They were looking at cell barrier integrity:
"...the cell monolayer integrity (TEER) decreased significantly during 24 h incubation (Fig. 3)."
"...the microvilli and tight junctions of the enterocyte monolayer appeared to be damaged after exposure to the oxidized LA."
6/ "In particular, this study stresses the importance of using high quality polyunsaturated lipids that have low levels of oxidation as dietary sources."

"The greater tendency of humans than dogs to develop ketosis on a high fat, low carbohydrate diet indicates that humans adapt less readily to such diets (3, 10, 48, 49).
3/ "These comparisons of metabolic responses to diet, training and exercise in dogs, rats and humans lead us to suggest that endurance performance should be studied in humans allowed accommodation periods of 20 weeks or more...
1/ On @realDaveFeldman 's Energy Model and Lean-Mass Hyper Responders:
"Serum cholesterol concentration was 160 ± 30 mg/100 ml on the predominantly cereal diet D . It increased significantly (P < 0.05) when [lower-carb] diet A, B, and C were introduced (Fig. 2)....
2/ "The higher levels of cholesterol attenuated with time but rose again when training abated after 24 weeks (Fig. 2). The differences between diets A and C were consistently significant (P < 0 .05), but the mean serum cholesterol values of [X] fed diet B were never...
3/ "...significantly different from corresponding means for [X] fed diets A or C. Four [X] developed serum cholesterol levels that were 4 to 17 SD higher than the means for the other members in each group (Fig. 3)."
2/ "Thirty-seven healthy women were fed two diets. Both diets contained a reduced amount of total and saturated fat. In addition, one diet was low in vegetables and the other was high in vegetables, berries, and fruit. The dietary intake of total fat was...
3/ "...70 g per day at baseline and decreased to 56 g (low-fat, low-vegetable diet) and to 59 g (low-fat, high-vegetable diet). The saturated fat intake decreased from 28 g to 20 g and to 19 g, and the amount of polyunsaturated fat intake increased...
