Association between dietary fat quality indices with anthropometric measurements in children and adolescents

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Studies showed that the relative proportions of fatty_acids were more associated with excess weight and NCDs in comparison with their absolute amounts in the diet. LI considers individual fatty_acid levels and their melting points. The lipophilic index of dietary intake was computed by multiplying the intake of each fatty_acid (in grams) by its specific melting point (°C), the sum of these two items, and then dividing by the total of fatty_acid intake (in grams). The findings indicated that n-6 fatty_acids were significantly positively associated with height Z-score and these fatty_acids were critical . . .
