Twenty-three apparently healthy volunteers aged 35 to 60 years consumed closely monitored self-selected (SS) diets for five weeks followed by two low fat controlled diets (25% energy) for two six-week periods followed by another five-week SS diet. The two low fat diets, fed in a crossover design to one-half of the subjects per controlled diet period, had a polyunsaturated/saturated (P/S) fat ratio of either 0.3 or 1.0. Results are reported for bi-weekly measurements of energy and nutrients; blood profiles and plasma fatty acids; and for end-of-period values for stool characteristics. Blood chemistry profiles differed in the two groups. The low P/S diet produced significant increases not only in cholesterol, but in 16:0, 16:1, and percent saturated fatty acids and decreases in 18:2 and omega 6 fatty acids. The reverse was seen with the high P/S diet. The essential fatty acid (EFA) linoleic acid returned in the poststudy period to prestudy levels (all subjects), but arachidonic acid did not. The explanation for negative correlation between magnesium intake or excretion and percent plasma linoleic acid must await further research.
