Rapeseed oil can reduce fibrinogen

According to a new study in Finland, eating rapeseed oil can effectively reduce the content of fibrinogen in human blood, which is beneficial to human health The University of Helsinki in Finland has completed the study in collaboration with the University of Tampere, according to a statement released recently The researchers first measured fibrinogen and cholesterol levels in the blood of 42 subjects, and they found that many of them exceeded the standard The researchers calculated the amount of fat the subjects consumed each day, such as cheese and butter, and then ordered them to replace part of the fat with a tablespoon of canola oil every day Six weeks later, another measurement found that in all the subjects whose original fibrinogen exceeded the standard, the fibrinogen content decreased by about one third Fibrinogen is the main component of human coagulation system, and it is also an acute response protein The increase of fibrinogen content is the characterization of some diseases of the body, which is common in cerebral thrombosis, myocardial infarction, diabetes and malignant tumors The results show that the fat content of rapeseed oil is good for human health, while olive oil, which was considered to be the best for human health, has no effect on reducing human fibrinogen, the researchers said The content of fibrinogen in blood exceeds the standard mainly in the elderly To avoid exceeding the fibrinogen limit, the researchers suggest that a quarter of the fat consumed by the elderly should be replaced by canola oil.
