The Lipids Committee addresses emerging issues and trends associated with dietary fats and oils to inform evidence-based nutrition guidance and to improve human health.
Research Focus Areas
- Address questions related to the role of fat and its dietary sources in popular diets, as well as public health recommended eating patterns.
- Evaluate genotype and/or phenotype data from existing and emerging sources on how individuals respond differently to specific lipids, including on nutrient status and on health outcomes.
- Support evidence-based decision making on changes in the dietary fats and oils applications in the food supply that have perceived or potential health effects.

Recent Work:
Maintaining the Quality of Unsaturated Oils in Food Service Frying Processes
Oxidation of unsaturated oils is an important issue as the food industry adjusts food preparation practices, such as frying, that comply with legislation prohibiting the use of partially hydrogenated oils (PHO). This brief review focuses on frying applications and includes a summary of lipid oxidation’s potential effects on health and flavor, as well as strategies to curb lipid oxidation during frying. An infographic is also provided to increase awareness and support informed decision-making.
Long-chain omega-3’s (DHA & EPA)
- NUTRITION 2023 session on “It’s Time to Quantify Intake Recommendations for Dietary Bioactives” featured three bioactives, including quantifying intakes for long-chain omega-3’s (DHA & EPA) for full-term pregnancy (click here for the session overview). This supports a broader strategy to support science-based health messaging about dietary components that do not currently have established minimum intake recommendations.
