Figure 1. The classification of lipids into saturated Fatty acid (SFA) and unsaturated fatty acids. The red arrows represent the conventional dietary recommendation of replacing SFA with unsaturated fatty acids (MUFA and PUFA), a strategy historically linked to cardiovascular risk reduction based on metabolic and clinical evidence.
MUFA: monounsaturated fatty acid; PUFA: polyunsaturated fatty acid.
