Omega-3 para Metabolic Syndrome

B Evidencia Al menos un ensayo aleatorizado lo respalda, con resultados mayoritariamente consistentes.

Systematic review of 44 RCTs found omega-3 significantly reduces triglycerides by 15-30% and reduces waist circumference by 0.81 cm. Fish oil combined with exercise produces greater body fat reduction than either alone. Benefits include PPAR-gamma activation and anti-inflammatory effects.
