Resumen

Objetivo: evaluar los efectos del consumo de linaza sobre el perfil lipídico, control del cáncer y como reemplazo hormonal en la menopausia y en la andropausia. Materiales y métodos: se realizó una revisión sistemática de ensayos clínicos aleatorizados que examinaron los efectos del consumo de
linaza sobre el peso corporal, la concentración de lípidos sanguíneos, el control del cáncer y los síntomas menopáusicos, usando las bases de datos de PubMed, Lilacs, OPS, OMS y Cochrane, publicados entre el 1 de enero de 2000 y el 30 de junio de 2010. A los artículos que cumplieron con criterios de inclusión se les evaluó su calidad metodológica. Resultados: fueron incluidos 49 artículos. Los estudios reportan que el consumo de linaza genera pequeños cambios en la concentración de los lípidos sanguíneos, mejora la sintomatología en mujeres menopáusicas, promueve la reducción de índices de proliferación tumoral y el aumento de apoptosis en cáncer de mama y próstata. Conclusiones: los resultados aún no son suficientes para recomendar el uso de la linaza para el control de la hipercolesterolemia en pacientes dislipidémicos. La evidencia favorece la linaza como una alternativa en la terapia coadyuvante del tratamiento del cáncer de mama y de próstata, y en la reducción de síntomas durante la menopausia.
