Quote from BMJ OpenHeart Study on Omega-6 vegetable oils source:
Importantly, the concentration of linoleic acid in adipose tissue is a reliable marker of intake as the half-life of linoleic acid is approximately 2 years in adipose tissue.
So any recorded measurements of linoleic acid in human fat would represent the cumulative effect of consuming foods with linoleic acid for the last two years at the time of measurement.
