    This study selected 90 middle-aged and elderly women with high cardiovascular risk as experimental subjects, and carried out a 3-month double-blind randomized controlled feeding trial to explore the traditional Chinese dietary habits and cooking methods, using three different types of dietary fatty acids.


    According to Shen Lirong, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) are both indicators related to cardiovascular health.


    The effect of these three different vegetable oils on cardiovascular risk is related to their own fatty acid composition


    "The content of unsaturated fatty acids in camellia oil is as high as 90%, and the content of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) oleic acid is as high as 80%-83%.

    China is the country with the widest distribution of camellia plants in the world and the largest production base of camellia oil in the world
