綿実油>オリーブオイル?

 綿実油とオリーブオイルを比較した介入研究(RCT)で、コレステロール値の高い人を対象に、血中脂質の変化を見ている。この結果が偶然でなければ、健康に良い油としてオリーブオイルを持ち上げてきた連中の面目は丸つぶれだが、この際、つぶれちゃってもいいだろう〈笑〉。

 食用油脂の業界団体は、速水もこみちクラスのイケメンを広告塔に、綿実油の宣伝に努めるべきである(⇦一体、それに何の意味が、、、?)

 結局のところ、オリーブオイルの健康効果なるものは、飽和脂肪酸の摂りすぎよりはマシといった程度の根拠しかないので、大多数の日本人には当てはまらない。但し、一頃のアメリカのように、大量の肉をかっ喰らっている上に、揚げ油はラードやヘッド、という食環境であれば、それなりの改善効果はあっただろう。

Blood Lipid Responses to Diets Enriched with Cottonseed Oil Compared With Olive Oil in Adults with High Cholesterol in a Randomized Trial

The Journal of Nutrition, Volume 152, Issue 9, September 2022, Pages 2060–2071, https://doi.org/10.1093/jn/nxac099

ABSTRACT

Background

Increasing unsaturated fat intake is beneficial for cardiovascular health, but the type of unsaturated fat to recommend remains equivocal.

 

Objectives

We investigated the effects of an 8-week diet intervention that was rich in either cottonseed oil (CSO; PUFA rich) or olive oil (OO; MUFA rich) on blood lipids in hypercholesterolemic adults.

 

Methods

Forty-three men and women with hypercholesterolemia (53 ± 10 years; BMI, 27.6 ± 4.8 kg/m2) completed this randomized parallel clinical trial consisting of an 8-week partial outpatient feeding intervention. Participants were given meals and snacks accounting for ∼60% of their daily energy needs, with 30% of energy needs from either CSO (n = 21) or OO (n = 22). At pre- and postdiet intervention visits, participants consumed a high-SFA meal (35% of total energy needs; 70% of energy from fat). The primary outcomes of fasting cholesterol profiles and secondary outcomes of postprandial blood lipids and glycemic markers were assessed over a 5-hour period.

 

Results

There were greater reductions from baseline to week 8 in fasting serum total cholesterol (TC; −17.0 ± 3.94 mg/dL compared with −2.18 ± 3.72 mg/dL, respectively; P = 0.008), LDL cholesterol (−19.7 ± 3.94 mg/dL compared with −5.72 ± 4.23 mg/dL, respectively; P = 0.018), non–HDL cholesterol (−20.8 mg/dL ± 4.00 compared with −6.61 ± 4.01 mg/dL, respectively; P = 0.014), and apoB (−11.8 mg/dL ± 2.37 compared with −3.10 ± 2.99 mg/dL, respectively; P = 0.05), in CSO compared with OO. There were also visit effects from baseline to week 8 for increases in HDL cholesterol (CSO, 56.5 ± 2.79 mg/dL to 60.2 ± 3.35 mg/dL, respectively; OO: 59.7 ± 2.63 mg/dL to 64.1 ± 2.24 mg/dL, respectively; P < 0.001), and decreases in the TC:HDL-cholesterol ratio (CSO, 4.30 ± 0.27 mg/dL to 3.78 ± 0.27 mg/dL, respectively; OO, 3.94 ± 0.16 mg/dL to 3.57 ± 0.11 mg/dL, respectively; P < 0.001), regardless of group assignment. In response to the high-SFA meal, there were differences in postprandial plasma glucose (P = 0.003) and triglyceride (P = 0.004) responses and a trend in nonesterified fatty acids (P = 0.11) between groups, showing protection in the postprandial state from an occasional high-SFA fat meal with CSO, but not OO, diet enrichment.

 

Conclusions

CSO, but not OO, diet enrichment caused substantial improvements in fasting and postprandial blood lipids and postprandial glycemia in hypercholesterolemic adults. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04397055.
