“…Okey et al (1960) reported a raised blood cholesterol level in female rats fed for limited periods of time. The indirect relationship between the number of meals per day and the serum cholesterol level is also apparent from the work of Gopalan et al (1962) on monkeys and the previously mentioned observations of Cohn (1961Cohn ( , 1964, Cohn and Allweiss (1963) and Givinup et al (1963) in men.…”

“…The Mediterranean-style eating pattern (MEP) has been of interest since the 1950s, when research conducted by Dr. Ancel Keys found that individuals living in the Mediterranean region of the world had lower rates of coronary heart disease (CHD) (1). More recent studies continue to demonstrate benefits of the MEP on reducing cardiovascular events (2) and improving survival from CHD (3).…”

IN BRIEF The Mediterranean-style eating pattern (MEP) has long been touted as a healthful way of eating. However, the health benefits of the eating pattern and key elements contributing to those benefits are still being researched. In people with type 2 diabetes, the majority of studies report that the MEP improves glycemic control and cardiovascular risk factors. In people at risk for diabetes, the majority of studies report a protective effect of the MEP against the development of type 2 diabetes. Although more research is needed to determine whether study results can be achieved outside the Mediterranean geographical region, and especially in the United States, the high-quality individual foods and combinations of foods included in the MEP can be recommended as a healthful eating approach.

“…It has been suggested by many that cholesterol is transferred from plasma to the tissues following ingestion of corn oil. When corn oil has been compared with saturated 169 fats a reduced plasma cholesterol level with a simultaneous considerable increase in liver cholesterol in the corn oil fed animals has frequently been observed (in rats by Grunbaum et al 1957, Avigan and Steinberg 1958, Reiser et al 1963, but not by Okey andLyman 1957, in cebus monkeys by Wissler et al 1963). Moore and Williams (1964), on the other hand, found distinctly lower plasma and liver cholesterol in rabbits given a corn oil diet than in rabbits given a saturated fat diet.…”

Experiments were conducted with and without addition of 1 per cent cholesterol to diets containing 20 per cent of fats of the following types: 1. corn oil, 2. 19.5 per cent hydrogenated coconut oil and 0.5 per cent corn oil, and 3. 12 per cent hydrogenated coconut oil and 8 per cent olive oil. Following a 3 weeks' pre‐experimental period on a fat free diet adult female rats were given the experimental diets for 6 weeks. In rats given cholesterol corn oil caused the well known transfer of cholesterol from plasma to the liver. In rats given diets containing cholesterol and corn oil the cholesterol content of the liver was considerably higher and serum cholesterol much lower in rats given the diet containing olive oil. The result indicate that linoleic acid probably enhances cholesterol absorption over and above the effect of oleic acid. The carcass cholesterol of rats given corn oil was slightly lower than in rats given type 2 of fat. The difference was statistically significant on cholesterol free diets. When various tissues were analysed corn oil induced transfer to other tissues than the liver could not be observed.
