studied the effects of daily intake of
a small amount of fish oil in bread, 36 subjects with hyperlipidemia
were randomly divided into three groups: stable fish oil with oat fibre,
control with oat fibre and control with wheat fibre. Phospholipid fatty
acids, triglycerides, cholesterol and malondialdehyde (MDA) were
measured. Plasma levels of EPA and DHA and total omega-3 fatty acids
were increased after 2 and 4 weeks of daily intake of 93 g bread
containing 1.3 g stable fish oil. Triglycerides were decreased and HDLcholesterol
increased after intake of the bread containing stable fish
oil. No significant changes occurred in the control groups.
