Omega-3 Fatty Acids (EPA/DHA) Chronic Inflammation

A

The VITAL trial and multiple randomized controlled trials demonstrate omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce CRP and modulate inflammatory cytokines. DHA showed stronger anti-inflammatory effects than EPA, lowering 4 pro-inflammatory proteins versus 1 in a randomized study.
