Mitochondrial function in general is poisoned by the unsaturated fats, especially arachidonic acid and DHA 1 0 2When animals are made "deficient" in all the exogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids, they become remarkably resistant to all sorts of stress and toxins 1 0 2Increased estrogen, nitric oxide, excitatory amino acids, cortisol, lactate, free unsaturated fatty acids, prolactin, growth hormone, histamine, serotonin, tumor necrosis factor and other pro-inflammatory cytokines and kinins, and a variety of prostaglandins and eicosanoids have been identified as anti-mitochondrial, anti-respiratory agents 1 0 2Dietary changes can drastically reduce the toxicity of linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and arachidonic acid 1 0 2Formation of prostaglandins, prostacyclin, and thromboxane is blocked by aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs 1 0 2A deficiency of polyunsaturated fatty acids leads to altered rates of cellular regeneration and differentiation 1 0 2The body produces a small amount of unsaturated fatty acid (Mead acids) when dietary PUFAs are not available 1 0 2Mead acids do not activate cell systems in the same way that plant-derived PUFAs do 1 0 1Mead acids are the precursors for an entirely different group of prostaglandins 1 0 2An excess of unsaturated fatty acids constitutes a massive distortion of the regulatory systems 1 0 2
