Interaction of Dietary Linoleic Acid and α-Linolenic Acids with rs174547 in <i>FADS1</i> Gene on Metabolic Syndrome Components among Vegetarians

Interaction of Dietary Linoleic Acid and α-Linolenic Acids with rs174547 in <i>FADS1</i> Gene on Metabolic Syndrome Components among Vegetarians

Fatty acid desaturase 1 (<i>FADS1</i>) gene controls the fatty acid metabolism pathway in the human body. The lower intake of &#945;-linolenic acid (ALA) than linoleic acid (LA) among vegetarians may disrupt the fatty acid metabolism and limit the conversion of ALA to anti-inflammato...
