In general, brand products were not used because data for linoleic and α-linolenic acids were not available for these products. Since canola and soybean oils are the primary sources of α-linolenic acid in the U.S. diet (Kris-Etherton PM, Taylor DS, Yu-Poth S, Huth P, Moriarty K, Fishell V, Hargrove RL, Zhao G, Etherton TD. 2000. Polyunsaturated fatty acids in the food chain in the United States. Am J Clin Nutr 71:179Sâ188S), these oils were used when possible. When attempting to keep saturated fat as low as possible and linoleic and α-linolenic acid at defined levels, rich sources of monounsaturated fats were incorporated. 1076
