| polyunsaturated fat |
(poly-un-SATCH-er-ay-ted) A highly unsaturated fat that is liquid at room temperature. Fats that are in foods are combinations of monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, and saturated fatty acids. Polyunsaturated fats are found in greatest amounts in corn, soybean, and safflower oils, and many types of nuts. They have the same number of calories as other types of fat, and may still contribute to weight gain if eaten in excess.

| polyunsaturated f. a.’s |
unsaturated fatty acids (q.v.) containing two or more double bonds; they occur predominantly as linoleic, linolenic, and arachidonic acids, in vegetable and seed oils. Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids can lower plasma lipid levels and thus lower serum cholesterol; however, they have been shown to lower both low-density and high-density lipoprotein levels, and excessive consumption of these fatty acids has also been linked to cancer.
