MUFA Versus Carbohydrate as... MUFA Versus PUFA: Effects... Role of MUFA in... Effect of MUFA on... High-MUFA Diets fish and Weight... Summary References fish Both Keys et al27 and Hegsted et al28 analyzed data from controlled feeding studies and developed similar blood cholesterol predictive equations. MUFA did not affect total cholesterol levels, but SFA raised them. PUFA lowered total cholesterol half as much as SFA raised it. More recent analyses confirmed these findings, although there is some suggestion that MUFAs elicit a cholesterol-lowering effect that is less than that observed for PUFAs.29 fish 30 In support of these findings, Howard et al31 found greater reductions in total cholesterol levels with PUFAs versus MUFAs (P<0.05) in a controlled-feeding study. However, other controlled-feeding studies, as well as a study with free-living subjects, observed comparable total and LDL cholesterol–lowering effects of these fatty acids32 33 34 35 36 when 4% to 14% of energy of each fatty acid class was substituted for the other.
