Background: While limited evidence suggests that omega-3 supplementation may reduce antisocial behaviour in children, studies have not reported on post-treatment follow-up and most treatment periods have been of short duration. This study tests the hypothesis that omega-3 supplementation over 6 months will reduce behaviour problems in children both at the end of treatment and […]
JANUARY 2015: Research Nutrition are aware of the results from research conducted by the University of Auckland’s Liggins Institute evaluating the quality and content of fish oils sold in New Zealand and Australia. The study looked specifically at the amount of omega-3 EPA and DHA contained in various products, measuring the oxidation (rancidity) of the […]
Musculoskeletal symptoms and orthopaedic conditions are a common cause of concern for many patients. Concentrated fish oil, providing the omega-3s EPA and DHA, is emerging as a cost effective tool with a favourable safety profile for optimising outcome from traditional treatment strategies. Scientific and clinical evidence shows that EPA and DHA may address all three […]
A supplement containing a combination of lutein, zeaxanthin, and Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids significantly benefits patients with age-related macular degeneration, according to a study published online March 21, 2013 in JAMA Ophthalmology. ABSTRACT Importance: It has been shown that the functionality of the macula lutea depends on the nutritional uptake of lutein and zeaxanthin […]
This study is the first randomized clinical trial of postnatal omega-3 DHA supplementation to measure attention. DHA and ARA, two nutritional compounds markedly deficient in the American [Western] diet, are derived from: Mothers before birth Breast-feeding, up to age two Some infant formulas DHA and ARA, positively affect: Brain development, infancy into childhood […]
The omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) found in seafood and marine oils called EPA and DHA may offer a simple, affordable way to reduce the effects of traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries by decreasing inflammation and nerve cell damage. They may also protect against cognitive impairment that can follow surgery or critical illness. These […]

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of fish consumption and fish oil supplements on the risk of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) for which there is currently scarce and diverging knowledge. Study Design: Population-based cohort Data was collected over an average of 16 years, documenting 536 cases of VTE. Weekly intake of […]
People tend to relate metabolism just with energy/weight, but it goes far beyond that. To give an example, each cell within our body requires energy to function and considering energy is dependent on metabolism, it becomes the basis of how our entire body functions. There are many facets to disease but the common denominator of […]
The objective of this meta-analysis was to examine the effect of EPA+DHA, without upper dose limits and including food sources, on blood pressure in RCTs, capturing the substantial volume of randomised controlled trials published in the past 2 years. Study Design: Random-effects meta-analysis of 70 clinical trials were used Weighted group mean differences and 95% […]
This Meta-Analysis of recent randomized clinical trials (RCTs) has found that omega-3 fatty acids from food or supplements can be as effective or more effective in lowering blood pressure than other lifestyle interventions, including restricting sodium and alcohol intake, and increasing physical activity. Study Design: Meta-Analysis This meta-analysis examined the effect of eicosapentaenoic acid […]
