Targeting adipose tissue with dietary oils - new findings on fatty acids and chronic disease 2 Martha A Belury, Ph.D., R.D. Carol S. Kennedy Professor of Nutrition Belury.1@osu.edu Dietary fats and chronic disease
3
Obesity is a BIG issue Decreases mobility & QOL Social stigma Increases risk for metabolic, cardiovascular diseases & some cancers Increases inflammation 3
4
Obesity is a condition where there is an excess of adipose tissue § Storage of Oil droplets Triglycerides 3 fatty acids + glycerol Energy Insulation Secretes cytokines & adipokines Interleukin 6 Leptin & Adiponectin
5
5 Central Obesity Alzheimers Some Cancers Heart Disease MetS & T2 Diabetes
6
One third of adults have metabolic syndrome 3 or more: Abdominal obesity Impaired fasting glucose Atherogenic dyslipidemia Elevated blood pressure 6 ATP III Criteria: Grundy et al., Circulation 25: 2735 (2005) Weight loss

Sources of linoleic acid 14
15
Linoleic acid lowers cholesterol “With vegetable oils this decrease [of cholesterol] is thought to be largely due largely to a poly- unsaturated fatty acid known as linoleic acid.” Page et al., Circulation 15: 97 (1957) 15

22
Fatty Acids Can Turn on Gene Expression Fatty Acids bind to proteins Transcription Factors Turn on Gene Expression Responsive genes that regulate: Fat metabolism Energy metabolism 22 Fatty Acid PPAR
23
Fatty Acids May Alter Inflammation by: Changing adipose size Affecting prostaglandin levels Changing expression of genes that code for proteins that affect inflammation (IL-6, Adipokines, etc) 23

CLA reduces body weight 34
35
1 lb. adipose = 3500 kcal 35 Does CLA Shrink Adipose?
36
1. CLA lowers total adipose mass 2. SAF lowers trunk adipose mass 36 Norris et al., 2009 -3.1 lbs -3.7 lbs
37
SAF Oil increases HDL 37
38
Cytokines *
39
SAF oil improves glycemia 39
40
So far…. In Postmenopausal women with T2 DM: CLA reduces BMI and adipose mass no effect on markers of glycemia SAF reduces trunk adipose mass, HbA1C, glycemia increases HDL and lean body mass 40

What do we know? 1. Kinky fats are good for you. True 1. Adding some fats is a good strategy for healthful eating. True 1. Healthful diets are always low in fat, taste bad, lack satiation and generally are boring. True
60
Know Your Fats & Talk About Fats 60
61
n6:n3 Ratio Goal: n6:n3 < 4:1 This means INCREASE Omega 3 This Does not Mean DECREASE Omega 6 61
62
Take Home Messages Dietary oils still have a protective role in preventing heart disease and MetS in a healthy life style 1. Diet 2. Exercise 3. Sleep 4. De-stress 62
63
Fitting Fats into Your Next Dinner Party Conversation Analogy: Just like you do not tell a patient to reduce their BMI by becoming taller, … Construct the conversation by keeping it simple 63
64
Take Home Messages Keep a sense of of humor and a sense of humility 64
65
Shop on the Edge 65
66
Summary: Proposed Mechanisms CLA and SAF oil have different effects on body composition and metabolism Fatty acids affect health by changing gene expression and metabolism As little as 1⅔ teaspoon (8 ml) added per day 66
67
Quiz, True or False 1. Kinky fats are good for you. 2. Adding some oils is a good strategy for healthful eating. 3. Healthful diets are always low in fat, taste bad, lack satiation and are, generally, quite boring.
