The Claim

Higher intake of non-hydrogenated vegetable oils is associated with 24% lower serum amyloid A levels in women aged 40–60 years.

Source: Home use of vegetable oils, markers of systemic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction among women.

In plain English

Women aged 40–60 who consume more non-hydrogenated vegetable oils have 24% lower levels of serum amyloid A, a marker of systemic inflammation.

See the scientific wording

Higher intake of non-hydrogenated vegetable oils is associated with lower levels of serum amyloid A (24% lower), a less commonly measured but clinically significant marker of systemic inflammation, in women aged 40–60 years.

Why this might work

Eating more non-hydrogenated vegetable oils reduces the production of a blood protein called serum amyloid A because the fats in these oils calm down a key inflammation signal in the liver, causing the liver to make less of this protein.

Study: Home use of vegetable oils, markers of systemic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction among women.
The study found that women who ate more healthy oils like olive and canola had 24% less of a blood marker for inflammation called serum amyloid A — exactly what the claim says.
