1. Recent studies have identified potential beneficial effects of eating nuts, most of which have substantial amounts of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). Macadamia nuts consist of 75% fat by weight, 80% of which is MUFA (palmitoleic acid). 
A macadamia nut-rich diet reduces total and LDL-cholesterol in mildly hypercholesterolemic men and women.
TLDR
Nuts as an isocaloric substitute for high SFA foods increase the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and decrease SFA, thereby lowering CVD risk, and can be included in a heart-healthy dietary pattern that reduces lipid/lipoprotein CVDrisk factors.
Effects of dietary palmitoleic acid on plasma lipoprotein profile and aortic cholesterol accumulation are similar to those of other unsaturated fatty acids in the F1B golden Syrian hamster.
TLDR
The data suggest that an oil relatively high in palmitoleic acid does not adversely affect plasma lipoprotein profiles or aortic cholesterol accumulation and was similar to other unsaturated fatty acid-rich oils.
The Role of the Novel Lipokine Palmitoleic Acid in Health and Disease.
TLDR
The induction of palmitoleate release from adipose tissue, dietary intake, and its supplementation are all interventions with a potential impact on certain metabolic diseases.
Is there something special about palmitoleate?

TLDR
There is a clear tendency towards compartmentalization and tissue-specific formation of palmitoleate, which is intriguing and requires further investigation.
Is Palmitoleic Acid a Plausible Nonpharmacological Strategy to Prevent or Control Chronic Metabolic and Inflammatory Disorders?
TLDR
The immune-metabolic effects of palmitolesic acid observed in cell culture, animal models, and humans are described to answer the question of whether palmitoleic acid is a plausible nonpharmacological strategy to prevent, control, or ameliorate chronic metabolic and inflammatory disorders.
Circulating palmitoleic acid and risk of metabolic abnormalities and new-onset diabetes.
TLDR
Circulating palmitoleate is robustly associated with multiple metabolic risk factors but in mixed directions, perhaps related to divergent lifestyle determinants or endogenous sources (liver, adipose tissue) of fatty acid synthesis.

Serum lipid effects of a high-monounsaturated fat diet based on macadamia nuts.
TLDR
The macadamia nut-based diet high in monounsaturated fat and the moderately low-fat diet both had potentially beneficial effects on cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels when compared with a typical American diet.
Almonds vs complex carbohydrates in a weight reduction program
TLDR
Almond supplementation of a formula-based LCD is a novel alternative to self-selected complex carbohydrates and has a potential role in reducing the public health implications of obesity.
Comparison of a high-carbohydrate diet with a high-monounsaturated-fat diet in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
TLDR
Preliminary results suggest that partial replacement of complex carbohydrates with monounsaturated fatty acids in the diets of patients with NIDDM does not increase the level of LDL cholesterol and may improve glycemic control and the levels of plasma triglycerides and HDL cholesterol.
Dietary prevention of stroke and its mechanisms in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats--preventive effect of dietary fibre and palmitoleic acid.
TLDR
Among SHRSP given various fatty acids, a diet containing 1% palmitoleic acid (POA) significantly improved the survival rate, with concomitant reduction in the incidence of stroke in spite of their excess NaCl intake through 1% NaCl water for drinking.
Monounsaturated fatty acid intake by children and adults: temporal trends and demographic differences.
TLDR
U.S. children and adults displayed temporal trends and demographic differences in intakes and food sources of MUFA, and the implications of these changes and differences on biologic risk factors for specific chronic diseases warrant further investigation.
