In 2025, Yosuke Tsuchiya and Eisuke Ochi from Hosei University studied 24 male athletes doing intense leg exercises. They gave half of them 3.6g of omega-3 supplements daily for four weeks before and one week after, while the other half got a placebo, checking muscle strength, soreness, and inflammation markers.

A 2018 editorial in Open Heart by DiNicolantonio & O’Keefe highlights that the typical Western diet—with high omega-6 and low omega-3 fats—promotes inflammation linked to heart disease and chronic illness. They stress the importance of keeping omega‑6/omega‑3 ratios low to reduce inflammatory signaling like platelet aggregation and oxidative stress.

A 2025 randomized controlled trial in Nutrients by University of Stanford tested omega‑3 supplementation plus resistance training vs. training alone in 30 healthy, active adults.

A 2025 review in Frontiers in Nutrition highlights that fish are rich in bioactive compounds, omega-3 fatty acids, and high-quality proteins, which can help prevent cardiovascular, neurological, and inflammatory diseases.
