Blood chemistry partly explained diet’s link to waist size

The share of blood fatty acids that were polyunsaturated partly accounted for the diet–waist link: 35.6% in men and 46.5% in women.The share of blood fatty acids that were polyunsaturated partly accounted for the diet–waist link: 35.6% in men and 46.5% in women.
