Omega-3 Fatty Acids: What New Research is Telling Us If you’ve been watching the news lately, you’ve probably heard of the new research on omega-3 fatty acids. According to a rigorous series of clinical trials in Greece, these polyunsaturated fatty acids may not be doing a thing for your cardiovascular health, as previous studies had suggested. These findings may come as a shock to many. Omega-3 fatty acids have been hailed as an important component of a healthy diet for many years now – to the point that they’re added to many other common kitchen staples. So I thought I would try my best to clear up any confusion regarding these new findings, while also reviewing the other potential benefits of omega-3s. What the New Research is Telling Us… First, the new studies from Greece only looked at the use of supplements, as opposed to natural sources of omega-3 fatty acids like fish, nuts, and avocados. This is obviously a major limitation since many people get the healthy fats naturally in their diet. The use of omega-3 fatty acids in particular, rather than natural source supplements on the market, may also be a limitation of this research. There are many natural source supplements available, such as flax seed oil and fish oil supplements. These may contain benefits not available in the more refined and processed omega-3 capsules. The new research does seem to contradict previous findings which demonstrated a protective effect of omega-3 fatty acids on heart health and the health of your arteries. These recent studies demonstrated no impact on heart attack rates, strokes, or heart-related deaths.

Omega-3 masne kiseline nemaju utjecaja na zdravlje? Prilično šokantne rezultate istraživanja predstavili su grčki znanstvenici koji pobijaju sve do sada izrečeno o omega-3 masnim kiselinama Omega-3 masne kiseline jedan su od najčešće spominjanih spojeva koji, prema dosadašnjim tvrdnjama, imaju odličan utjecaj na naše zdravlje. Pripisuje im se zaštita srca i regulacija tlaka zbog utjecaja na količinu triglicerida u krvi. U međuvremenu se razvila cijela industrija proizvoda obogaćenih omega-3 masnim kiselinama, od kapsula i ostalih dodataka prehrani preko margarina, ulja i ostalih masnoća koje koristimo u kuhinji. No, grčki znanstvenici sa Sveučilišta Janjina predstavili su analizu kliničkih ispitivanja koja su provedena na gotovo 70 tisuća ljudi u kojoj se ne slažu s dosadašnjim tvrdnjama o blagotvornom utjecaju omega-3 masnih kiselina, proglašavajući ih potpuno neučinkovitim za sve navedeno. Glavni izvor omega-3 masnih kiselina je riba poput sardina i lososa, što se i dalje preporučuje kao zdrav obrok koji bi trebao zamijeniti meso. No, ovo nije prvi glas koji tvrdi da omega-3 masne kiseline nemaju učinka na smrtnost i srčane bolesti, jer su ove godine i znanstvenici iz Južne Koreje objavili rezultate istraživanja na 20 tisuća ljudi tvrdeći isto.
