Percent energy of individual fatty acids.

Major fatty acids	10% fat energy	45% fat energy
C4:0–C14:0	0.2	0.9
C16:0	1.5	9.6
C18:0	0	6.6
C18:1n-9	2.4	15.8
C18:2n-6	4.6	8.9
C18:3n-3	0.4	0.5
Total n-3 PUFA	0.4	0.6
Total n-6 PUFA	4.9	9.1
Total MUFA	2.9	24.1
Total saturated	1.7	10.5

Note: Data are the mean of 3 samples assayed independently with SD ≤ 0.2% energy. Fatty acid content of the diets were determined by gas chromatography-based fatty acid methyl ester analysis. MUFA, monounsaturated fatty acids; PUFA, polyunsaturated fatty acids.
