Article Synopsis
- n3-PUFA, found in fish oil, has known benefits like cardiovascular protection and anti-inflammatory effects, but how it works is not fully understood.
- In a study with 31 healthy participants, 12 weeks of fish oil supplementation increased the Omega-3 Index significantly, but no major changes were found in red blood cells.
- The study observed that fish oil did soften other white blood cells, making them more deformable, which could improve their ability to respond to inflammation or infection.
