Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Heart Disease
The potential for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease through increased dietary intake of omega-3 (ω-3) fish oils is not a recent scientific discovery. A historically important study in 1980 reported that high levels of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet of the Inuit people of Greenland were linked to a lower rate of death from acute myocardial infarction compared to the Danish ...
متن کاملPlasma phospholipid trans fatty acids and risk of heart failure.
BACKGROUND Although trans fatty acids (TFAs) may increase the risk of dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease (CAD), limited data are available on their association with heart failure (HF). OBJECTIVE Our goal was to assess associations of plasma and dietary TFAs with HF and CAD. DESIGN We used a prospective, nested case-control design to select 788 incident HF cases and 788 matched control...
متن کاملPlasma and dietary omega-3 fatty acids, fish intake, and heart failure risk in the Physicians' Health Study.
BACKGROUND Data on the relation of plasma and dietary omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids (FAs) with heart failure (HF) risk have been inconsistent. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the relation of n-3 FAs with HF in US male physicians. DESIGN We used nested case-control (n = 1572) and prospective cohort study designs (n = 19,097). Plasma phospholipid n-3 FAs were measured by using gas chromatography, and food...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Relationship between Endometriosis and Omega-3 and Omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Background: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation causing major problems including infertility. The role of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as their potential anti-inflammatory effects in endometriosis needs to be further explored. The objective of this study was to compare serum phospholipid fatty acid profile in endometriosis patients with controls, and to explore the correlation of ...
متن کاملThe Heart-healthy Benefits of Omega-3 Fatty Acids
In September 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a qualified health claim regarding cardiovascular risk reduction by foods containing the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. This approval signifies that the FDA has determined that evidence supports (although not conclusively) an association between consumption of foods rich in omega-3 fatty a...
