Can you explain the mechanism proposed for the oxidation of polyunsaturated fats leading to inflammation, and why human studies often show neutral or positive health effects when these fats replace saturated ones? Additionally, how does the oxidation of polyunsaturated fat compare to the oxidation of saturated fat?
