Hypocholesterolaemic and anti-atherogenic effects of palm-based oils (NoveLin I and NoveLin II) in cholesterol-fed rabbits

NoveLin I and NoveLin II are palm-based oils. NoveLin I has an equal distribution of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, whereas NoveLin II has a moderate level of monounsaturated fatty acids, and a lower content of saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, their hy...
