The atherogenic (AI) and thrombogenic indices (TI) were calculated using the equations of Ulbright and Southgate (1991). In the equations, C14:0 is considered to be 4 times more atherogenic than other FA, so it is assigned the coefficient ‘4’. The C18:1, n−6 and remaining monounsaturated FA are assigned coefficients of 0.5 because they are less anti-atherogenic than the n−3 FA, which are assigned a coefficient of 3, as follows:
