Abstract Vitamin E supplementation of dietary sardine oil and shark liver oil was found to enhance the hypocholesterolemic properties and other favourable effects like reduction in serum triglycerides and increase in the percentage of HDL cholesterol in albino rats. The effect of diets having these oils with or without added vitamin E (1.5 IU/g) was compared to a sunflower oil diet and a commercial feed. The increase in the blood sugar levels in rats fed with polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich fish oil was insignificant. Influence of dietary fatty acids on the fatty acid composition of the lipids of heart, liver and adipose tissue of the rats fed on these diets is also reported
