Omega-3 per Metabolic Syndrome

B Evidenze Almeno un trial randomizzato lo supporta, con risultati per lo più coerenti.

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.
