Trends in intake of saturated fatty acid, 2013-2017


Because saturated fatty acids (SFA) is not only a non-essential nutrient but also a risk factor causing cardiocerebrovascular diseases, its excessive intake should be avoided. The intake of SFA seems to be gradually increased since 2013 (see Figure 1), with the highest consumption occurring among men and women in their teenagers and 20s (see Figure 2).
