Genetically based differences in circulating fatty acids may be due to differences in the conversion of fatty acid precursors.
Understanding genetic influences can help tailor dietary recommendations for fatty acid intake.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Our findings reinforce earlier reports that genetically based differences in circulating fatty acids may be partially due to differences in the conversion of fatty acid precursors.
Why this rating
