[The role of dietary fats in health].
The current knowledge shows that the quality and quantity of dietary fat have a meaningful role in the etiology and pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The risk of coronary heart disease is positively related to the cholesterol level in the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction. Cholesterol-lowering diet is recommended for everyone. The recommended diet is low in total fat, saturated fatty acids, dietary cholesterol and salt and high in fiber.
