The effect of oleate, linoleate, and EPA/DHA supplementation of postmenopausal women on in vivo lipid peroxidation and LDL susceptibility to ex vivo oxidationHigdon, Jane V. 23 November 1999 (has links)
While replacement of dietary saturated fat with unsaturated fat has been advocated
to reduce cardiovascular disease risk, diets high in polyunsaturated fatty acids
(PUFA) could increase low density lipoprotein (LDL) susceptibility to oxidation,
potentially contributing to the pathology of atherosclerosis. To assess in vivo lipid
peroxidation and susceptibility, of LDL surface and core lipids to ex vivo oxidation,
in women consuming increased amounts of specific unsaturated fatty acids, 15
postmenopausal women took daily supplements of sunflower oil providing 12.3
g/day of oleate, safflower oil providing 10.5 g/day of linoleate, and fish oil
providing 2.0 g/day of eicosapentaenoate (EPA) and 1.4 g/day of docosahexaenoate
(DHA) during a crossover trial. Plasma F₂-isoprostanes (F₂-isoP),
malondialdehyde (MDA), and thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TEARS)
were measured to assess lipid peroxidation in vivo. Ex vivo oxidation of LDL was
monitored by measuring the formation of phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides (PCOOH) and cholesteryl linoleate hydroperoxides (CE18:200H) during coppermediated
oxidation. Plasma free F₂-isoP and MDA concentrations were lower
after EPA/DHA supplementation than after oleate (P = 0.001, F₂-isoP and 0.02,
MDA) and linoleate supplementation (P = 0.04 for both F₂-isoP and MDA).
However, plasma TBARS concentrations were higher after EPA/DHA than after
oleate (P = 0.001) and linoleate supplementation (P = 0.0004). During LDL
oxidation, the lag phase for PCOOH formation was shorter in EPA/DHA- than
oleate- (P = 0.0001) and linoleate-enriched LDL (P = 0.002), while the lag phase
for CE18:200H was shorter in EPA/DHA- than oleate- (P = 0.01) but not
linoleate-enriched LDL. The maximal rate of PCOOH formation was lower in
EPA/ DHA- than linoleate- (P = 0.007) but not oleate-enriched LDL, while the
maximal rate of CE18:200H formation was lower in EPA/DHA- than oleate- (P =
0.03) and linoleate-enriched LDL (P [less than or equal to] 0.0001). The maximal concentrations of
PCOOH and CE18:200H were lower in EPA/DHA- than oleate- (P [less than or equal to] 0.05) and
linoleate-enriched LDL (P [less than or equal to] 0.01). Oleate-enrichment generally decreased the
oxidative susceptibility of LDL surface and core lipids, while EPA/DHA-enrichment
did not increase LDL oxidative susceptibility compared to linoleate-enrichment.
This study emphasizes the need for more than one relevant assay of in
vivo lipid peroxidation. / Graduation date: 2000

The effect of supplementation with n-9, n-6, and n-3 fatty acids on plasma lipid, lipoprotein, apolipoprotein B concentrations, LDL particle size, and oxidative susceptibility of two LDL subfractions in postmenopausal womenLee, Ye-Sun 21 September 1999 (has links)
Current dietary recommendations have placed increasing emphasis on dietary fat
as an important element to decrease risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although total
fat and the fatty acid composition of diets influence the risk of CVD, the optimal amounts
of different fatty acids are not well defined, especially if n-6 and n-3 fatty acids are
considered. Despite the fact that postmenopausal women are at increased risk of CVD,
few studies have investigated the influence of dietary fatty acids on this risk. Therefore,
this study was designed to determine the effect of supplementation with different fatty
acids on risk factors of CVD in postmenopausal women. Sixteen healthy,
postmenopausal women were randomly assigned in a three-period crossover trial to
treatments of 15 g/d supplements of oleic acid-rich sunflower oil (TS), linoleic acid-rich safflower oil (SO), and eicosapentaenoic acid- and docosahexaenoic acid-rich fish oil
(FO). Each treatment period lasted 5 weeks followed by a 7-week washout interval.
When the women were supplemented with FO compared to supplementation with either
TS or SO, the concentration of high density lipoprotein cholesterol tended to increase
(p=0.07 and 0.05, respectively) as did the size of the low density lipoprotein (LDL)
particle (P=0.03 in both instances) while the concentration of triacylglycerol (p=0.0001
and 0.02, respectively) and apolipoprotein B (apo B) (P=0.005 and P=0.01, respectively)
decreased. The concentration , i.e., total cholesterol, cholesterol ester, free cholesterol,
phospholipids, α- and γ-tocopherol, of the two LDL subfractions was not influenced by
any of the oil supplements but was greater in the large (L) subfraction than the small (S).
When the oxidation of the two subfractions was measured by monitoring the formation of
conjugated dienes, the lag time was shorter in both fractions after supplementation with
FO compared to supplementation with SO (P=0.0001) or TS (P=0.0001) but the effect
was greater in the L subfraction. The rate of formation of conjugated dienes, which was
slower after FO supplementation than supplementation with either TS (P=0.02) or SO
(P=0.001), was faster in the L compared to the S subfraction. When oxidation was
measured by monitoring the increase in negative charge on apo B over 23 hr, only the 1
hr time point differed. The increase was greater in the FO-supplemented
group than either the TS- or SO-supplemented groups (P=0.001 in both instances). The
change was greater in S LDL (P=0.007). These findings demonstrate a greater potential
antiatherogenic property of dietary n-3-rich oil than n-6- or n-9-rich ones as indicated by
changes to plasma lipids, lipoproteins, apo B, and particle size but the influence of the
oxidative susceptibility of L and S subfractions is less conclusive. / Graduation date: 2000

Energy and nutrient intake, and body composition of elderly women with different ages and levels of physical activityBell, Elizabeth J. 17 March 1993 (has links)
The US population over the age of 65 years is growing rapidly, with elderly
women outnumbering men by 50 percent. Studies show that aging is often
accompanied by reduced energy intake, inadequate nutrition, and the loss of lean
body mass with a subsequent increase in body fat, as well as the tendency towards
inactivity. An increased level of physical activity elevates energy needs, which can
lead to increased energy and nutrient intake, and has been shown to aid in the
maintenance of lean body mass and the reduction of body fat. Positive health
outcomes for seniors depends partly on a clearer understanding of the
interrelationships between physical activity, diet, and body composition.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether higher overall levels of
physical activity among elderly women, were related to higher energy intake, nutrient adequacy, and less body fat, and to what extent age affected these
associations. Sixty-three elderly women (aged 65-98 years) volunteers completed a
three part study spanning 14 weeks. Mean level of physical activity (MLPA) and
mean nutrient intakes were estimated using nine self-reported days of records, three
predetermined days from each of three recording periods. MLPA was determined
from self-reported hours spent in five physical activity categories (resting, very
light, light, moderate, and heavy), multiplied by corresponding weighted factors of
intensity (1.0, 1.5, 2.5, 5.0, 7.0, respectively). Nutrient analyses for seven
vitamins (vitamin A, vitamin C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin
B12) and three minerals (calcium, iron, and zinc) were done using the Food
Processor II computer software. A mean adequacy ratio (MAR) was calculated for
each subject as the average percent of the RDA for intakes of all 10 nutrients.
Body composition assessment included triplicate measures of: height and weight
from which body mass index (BMI) was determined; waist-to-hip ratio (WHR); and
an estimation of percent body fat (PBF) from the sum of four skinfolds (triceps,
biceps, subscapular, suprailiac).
It was determined that MLPA was not directly related to energy intake,
nutrient adequacy, or the three body composition parameters. However, the
correlation coefficients between MLPA and energy intake, mean adequacy ratio, and
percent RDA for 8 of the 10 nutrients were positive, and the correlation coefficients
between MLPA and all three body fatness measures were negative, as was expected. The small coefficient of variability of MLPA limited its discriminating power in
determining associations with energy intake, nutrient adequacy, and body
composition.
Backward stepwise regression models were conducted to distinguish potential
confounding effects of age, education, and MLPA on the variables kcal/day,
kcal/kg/day, MAR, BMI, WHR, and PBF. Age was found to account for the
largest portion of the variations, and was greater than the contribution of MLPA for
all of these variables, except in the case of kcal/kg/day.
When the subjects were divided into young-old (65-74 yr) and old-old (75-98
yr) subgroups, the younger compared to the older women were found to be more
active as measured by MLPA (p=.02), explained by their engaging in more light
activities of daily living (p=.04). The young-old compared to the old-old women
consumed more kcalories/day (p=.01), and had a higher MAR score (p=.00). The
nutrient densities of the two groups' diets were not significantly different. The
younger women had slightly lower BMI, WHR, and PBF values.
This study revealed age, rather than MLPA, was a better predictor of some
parameters of diet adequacy and body fatness among this sample of elderly women.
In addition, consistently higher levels of physical activity and greater dietary
adequacy and was found among the younger compared to the older portions of this
sample of senior women, suggesting that nutrition intervention programs for the
elderly should encourage daily activeness as a strategy to maintain or improve
dietary adequacy with advancing age. / Graduation date: 1993

Dietary behavior and body composition parameters among self-reported exercising and non-exercising elderly womenBell, Kathleen A. 15 March 1993 (has links)
The percentage of the American population who are 65 years old or older is
rapidly increasing, especially the proportion of women. It is becoming crucial to
encourage lifestyle behaviors that will enable senior women to remain in optimal
health. Following the 1990 Dietary Guidelines' recommendations to limit fat intake
and consume adequate amounts of dietary fiber has been shown to positively impact
longevity and health status in the elderly by decreasing risk factors for chronic
diseases. An expected outcome of engaging in regular exercise is a reduction in
body fat, which is also associated with a lowered incidence of several chronic
illnesses. However, the literature clearly indicates that nutritional quality of the diet
and involvement in regular exercise decrease with increasing age. There is evidence that, with the adoption of one health enhancing behavior, there is a greater tendency
to engage in other health promoting behaviors, but little data exist on the healthseeking
behaviors of older adults.
The purpose of this study was to ascertain if there were identifiable
differences between self-defined exercising and self-defined non-exercising elderly
women with respect to their nutrient intake, food sources of dietary fat and fiber,
dietary change behavior, and body composition parameters, considering their age
and education and income levels. The objective was to determine whether those
women who had consciously undertaken a regular exercise program would also have
higher micronutrient intakes, make lower fat and higher fiber food choices, report
having made more dietary changes in the direction of the 1990 Dietary Guidelines,
and have leaner body compositions than those who had not undertaken such a
program.
Thirty-three elderly women self-reported exercisers (mean age 74.1 years)
and 30 self-reported non-exercisers (mean age 71.3 years) were enrolled in a 14
week study. Exercisers were defined as those who reported having engaged in a
regular program of planned exercise a minimum of 15 minutes per session, 2 times
per week, for at least the last year, and non-exercisers were those who had not.
They kept three, 7-day food records at 5 week intervals. Nutrient intake was
estimated from 9 days of food records, 3 predetermined days from each recording
period, using the Food Processor n software. Dietary intakes were analyzed for
energy, macronutrients, dietary fiber, and selected micronutrients. Food sources of dietary fat and fiber were determined using a food categorization adapted from
Popkin and coworkers (1989). Information concerning dietary change behavior,
obtained from questionnaire responses, was compared between groups using chisquare
tests. Body composition, assessed through repeat measurements during each
dietary recording period, included determination of percent body fat through
skinfolds, waist-to-hip-ratio and body mass index. Average 9-day nutrient intakes
and anthropometric measures were compared between groups using t-tests or Mann-
Whitney U tests.
Both elderly women exercisers and non-exercisers had similar energy,
macronutrient, and dietary fiber intakes based on 9-day means. Their total fat
intakes, expressed in grams and as percentages of energy, were not significantly
different. Both groups consumed a lower percentage of their daily kcalories as total
fat (32%) compared with national surveys of women over 65 (36%). Exercisers
consumed more total vitamin A (p=.03) and carotene (p=.00) than the non-exercising
women. A great proportion of both groups did not meet 75 % of the
Recommended Dietary Allowances for calcium and zinc. A larger proportion of the
exercisers than the non-exercisers reported using lower fat cheese (p=.02) and green
and yellow vegetables (p=.03), which partially explained their higher total vitamin
A and carotene intakes. Exercisers obtained less of their total fat intake from lower
fat milk (p=.02) and more of their fat intake from lower fat lunch meats (p=.04)
than the non-exercisers. The categories of legumes (p=.02) and lower fiber
vegetables (p=.05) supplied greater amounts of dietary fiber for the exercisers compared with the non-exercisers. When asked about dietary changes made over
the past decade, a greater percentage of the exercisers than non-exercisers reported
having decreased red meat intake (p=.05) and increased consumption of cereals
(p=.05) and legumes (p=.00). Actual intake data showed that the legume food
category contributed more dietary fiber to the diets of the exercisers than the non-exercisers
(p=.02).
No differences were found in body fat measures between the exercisers and
non-exercisers. The lack of observed differences between the two groups reinforces
what other researchers have found, that a large number of factors influence body
composition, of which exercise is only one. More research is needed to distinguish
the interactions of age, energy intake, and physical activity on the body fatness of
elderly women, as well as the most accurate instruments for assessing body
composition for this age group.
Exercise participation among elderly women in this study appeared to be
associated with several positive dietary behaviors. Elderly women exercisers
compared to non-exercisers made food choices leading to higher total vitamin A and
carotene intakes, and also reported making more changes in food consumption
behaviors in the direction of current dietary recommendations. These observed
outcomes provide support for designing health-promotion programs for elderly
women which include both nutrition education and exercise components. / Graduation date: 1993
