The prospective data suggests that increasing dietary intake of alpha-linolenic acid may reduce the risk of Sudden Cardiac Death but not other types of fatal Coronary Heart Disease or nonfatal myocardial infarction in women. The specificity of the association between alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and Sudden Cartiac Death supports the hypothesis that these n-3 fatty acids [...] Bookmark to:
      The study found no evidence of an association between breast cancer and total, saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated dietary fat intake, in agreement with previous studies, including a meta-analysis of seven epidemiologic cohort studies from four countries totaling more than 330 000 women and nearly 5000 incident cases of breast cancer, as well as more recent [...] Bookmark to:
According to new research, eating one portion per week of fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) by over 50 percent. Fish intake, the major source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), may reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). There are two types of [...] Bookmark to:
There is significant evidence that omega-3 fatty acids have a beneficial effect on heart arrhythmias (irregular heart beat), which can lead to a decreased risk of death from cardiovascular disease. New analyses indicate that regular fish oil intake could correspond to as much as a 5% reduction in population-wide sudden deaths. A meta-analysis published in the [...] Bookmark to:
New research has shown a significant {correlation~analogue~correspondence~equivalence~relationship} between fish oil intake during pregnancy and asthma incidence during childhood. Children whose mothers supplemented with fish oil during pregnancy were significantly less likely to be diagnosed with childhood asthma than children from non-supplementing mothers. Current evidence suggests that asthma development may be associated with maternal intake of marine [...] Bookmark to:
