INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
published in the journal Molecular Nutrition Food Research, adding fatty fish, or Omega-3 fatty acids, to our diet for at least four times
a week may help in preventing the risk of heart diseases by increasing the amount of good cholesterol in our body
During the study it was observed that fatty fish (especially Omega-3 fatty acids) increases the size and lipid composition of high-density
lipoprotein (HDL) particles, which is a good cholesterol, in people with impaired glucose metabolism
Additionally, it was observed that using daily 30 ml of camelina oil, which is known to be rich in alpha-linolenic acid and an essential
Omega-3 fatty acid, was found to decrease the number of harmful Intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL) particles.The study was done on
nearly 100 Finnish men and women aged between 40 and 72, with impaired glucose metabolism
These participants were randomly divided into four groups for a 12-week intervention: the camelina oil group, the fatty fish group, the lean
fish group, and the control group
While people in the camelina oil group, fatty fish group, showed much higher HDL and lower IDL cholesterol levels
The research said that eating lean fish, was not associated with changes in the number, size or composition of lipoprotein particles.Here we
give you five benefits of eating fatty fish:1
