European women live longer than men, because of both biological and behavioural advantages, but women's longer lives are not necessarily healthy lives.

Nutritional research is focusing on the effects of incorporating these healthier fatty acids, such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), into animal and human diets. CLA is present in dairy products and meat from ruminants and in very low amounts in our bodies.
