A growing library of the omega-3 research we're following — summarized and categorized so you can find what matters to you.
Omega-3 supplementation showed small improvements in liver fat and triglycerides in children with fatty liver disease, but little evidence of benefit for liver scarring.
In rats fed a high-cholesterol diet, fish oil supplementation reduced blood fat, inflammation, and vessel-stress markers similarly to the cholesterol drug atorvastatin.
A meta-analysis of six trials found krill oil supplementation was linked to improved pain and physical function scores in people with knee osteoarthritis, with a good safety profile.
In obese mice, Antarctic krill oil reduced diet-induced high cholesterol, liver fat buildup, and oxidative stress by influencing key cholesterol-regulating pathways.
In mice, fish oil and krill oil both raised omega-3 levels but altered different liver and brain fat classes linked to inflammation pathways.
In rats fed a high-fat diet, krill oil supplementation was linked to improved liver cell energy metabolism, including better fat-burning and mitochondrial function.
