Association of Fish Intake with Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol/high-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio in Apparently Healthy Males in Japanese

We hypothesized that higher fish intake may be associated with lower serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (L/H) ratios, an atherogenic marker, and healthier lifestyle behaviors.
