Omega‐3 fatty acids in coronary heart disease: Recent updates and future perspectives

Abstract: Incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) increases worldwide with varying etiological factors. In addition to the control of risk factors, dietary modification has been recommended to reduce the prevalence. Omega-3 (ω-3) fatty acids (FAs), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), of fish oil are beneficial for the prevention of CHD. The effect can be ascribed to anti-inflammatory, vasodilating, antiarrhythmic, antihypertensive activities and lowering of triacyl glycerol level. The American … Show more

“…Even though C20:5n-3 and C22:6n-3 were increased in FO milk, their concentrations were not enough to markedly contribute to the human intake recommendations (approx. 1 g/d) of n-3 to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease [30]. Even though the n-3 levels were increased in FO, the total PUFA were not changed relative to control.…”

“…The mortality rate of CHD is the highest among all CVDs, accounting for about 40% of all CVD-related deaths (Rezaei-Hachesu et al, 2017; Zhu et al, 2018). Numerous studies have shown that diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemias, abdominal obesity, unhealthy diet, smoking, and psychosocial stress are major risk factors for CHD (Chow et al, 2007; Gupta et al, 2016; Ajith and Jayakumar, 2018). CHD events were defined as hospitalization for unstable angina pectoris (UAP), myocardial infarction (MI), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting, and cardiovascular death (Makino et al, 2015).…”

“…1,2 Omega-3 longchain polyunsaturated fatty acids are known to have antiinflammatory and lipid-lowering effects, as well as antihypertensive effects. 3 Previous studies evaluating the impact of fish consumption on cardiovascular disease events have shown inconsistent results. 1,4,5 Therefore, our aim in this investigation was to systematically review the existing literature about the relationship between fish consumption and cardiovascular disease events in human studies in order to inform the integration of fish into a well-balanced diet.…”
