claim13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 n n n n n n Early guidance to increase dietary LA stemmed from the diet–heart hypothesis of the 1960s–1970s, which proposed that replacing saturated fats with LA-rich vegetable oils would lower serum cholesterol, thereby reducing the risk of atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
