Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialIncreased dietary LA has contributed to a pervasive imbalance in dietary-6 relative to-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) that has been proposed to affect the incidence and progression of chronic diseases [,,].2Sergeant Susan (2026)Effect of Dietary Linoleic Acid Intake on Eicosapentaenoic Acid Status and Lipoxygenase-Mediated Oxylipin Biosynthesis in Healthy Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized Trial13 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.2Sergeant Susan (2026)Effect of Dietary Linoleic Acid Intake on Eicosapentaenoic Acid Status and Lipoxygenase-Mediated Oxylipin Biosynthesis in Healthy Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialA re-analysis of the Sydney Diet Heart Study showed that replacing saturated fat with high-LA safflower oil markedly increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality despite lowering cholesterol [].2Sergeant Susan (2026)Effect of Dietary Linoleic Acid Intake on Eicosapentaenoic Acid Status and Lipoxygenase-Mediated Oxylipin Biosynthesis in Healthy Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialOne study reported that a 10-week dietary intervention was associated with a significant increase in plasma adiponectin levels (baseline: 6.50 µg/mL; after supplementation: 7.63 µg/mL ( = .02),whereas the other 2 studies reported that n-3 PUFA supplementation in combination with a ketogenic dietary intervention had no significant effect on plasma adiponectin levels.4Chon Ji-Eun (2026)Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Humans: A Scoping Review
Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialIn contrast, no studies using a MUFA + n-6 PUFA comparator combination control, such as high-oleic safflower oil and soybean oil, showed a significant effect of the intervention on AT inflammation.Two studies that used ketogenic diets as their control,with added n-3 supplementation as their intervention, found significant decreases in AT inflammatory markers with n-3 PUFA supplementation.4Chon Ji-Eun (2026)Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Humans: A Scoping Review
Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialTwo studies using more novel AT-specific biomarkers, namely zinc-α-2-glycoproteinand chemerin,found significant effects of n-3 PUFA supplementation.4Chon Ji-Eun (2026)Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Humans: A Scoping Review
Safflower Oil Blood Pressure Randomized TrialDespite this, literature in humans has been limited and existing studies have been notably heterogeneous in terms of their methodological features, including research design, subject characteristics, methods of assessing AT inflammation, and n-3 PUFA characterization (eg, supplementation vs dietary intake vs circulating concentrations).4Chon Ji-Eun (2026)Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Adipose Tissue Inflammation in Humans: A Scoping Review
