Omega-3 fatty acids and inflammatory processes: from molecules to man.

TL;DR: Human trials demonstrate benefit of oral n-3 fatty acids in rheumatoid arthritis and in stabilizing advanced atherosclerotic plaques and the anti-inflammatory and inflammation resolving actions of EPA, DHA and their derivatives are of clinical relevance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Roles of Fatty Acids and Their Effects on Human Health

TL;DR: It would seem more appropriate to describe biological effects and health impacts of individual named fatty acids, although it is recognized that this would be a challenge when communicating outside of an academic environment (eg, to consumers).
Journal ArticleDOI

n-3 Fatty acids and cardiovascular disease: evidence explained and mechanisms explored.

TL;DR: A recent study suggests that long-chain n-3 PUFAs might also act to stabilize advanced atherosclerotic plaques, perhaps through their anti-inflammatory effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal Nutritional Status for a Well-Functioning Immune System Is an Important Factor to Protect against Viral Infections.
