The carotid plaques in the subjects taking the fish oil became less inflamed, had higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, fewer macrophages and more well-formed fibrous caps compared to those taking the place in patients in the control and sunflower oil groups. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12583947 Thies F, Garry JM, Yaqoob P, Rerkasem K, Williams J, Shearman CP, Gallagher PJ, Calder PC, and Grimble RF. “Association of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids with stability of atherosclerotic plaques: a randomized controlled trial.” Lancet 2003 361: 477-485 (2003). That was a study on carotid plaques. Would high dose fish oil have a modest effect on remodeling soft plaque in coronary arteries?   Tags: High Dose Fish Oil,Soft plaque

Posted: 8/27/2017 10:09:25 AM Back to Top   The abstract makes a general statement, but doesn’t specify the % in each group that benefitted from fish oil, unless I missed something. The full study is paywalled. Has anybody seen the statistical results? Tags:
