Happy Healing® Omega Three

Description

Omega-3 is a type of polyunsaturated fatty acid derived mainly from fish oil. These important nutrients may be commonly used in nutritional therapy for potential depression, high cholesterol, and to reduce the risk of heart attack (1).

Studies indicate omega-3 fatty acids may lower cholesterol (2) (6) and are believed to reduce recurrence in patients with a history of stroke (5).

Omega 3s are also believed to be beneficial in the area of oncology because they play essential roles in cell signaling and in the cell structure and fluidity of membranes (15). They may  participate in the resolution of inflammation and have anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects (4).

Higher omega-3 intake and improved survival among stage III colon cancer patients with wild-type KRAS and deficient MMR (13)
Supplementation with Omega-3 was also potentially associated with a reduced occurrence of renal cell carcinoma in women (3) and may lower the risk of breast cancer (7); while potentially improving overall survival (14) from cancer.

Preliminary findings suggest that fish oil supplementation might increases the efficacy of chemotherapy, potentially aid an improvement in survival (8), and helps possibly maintain weight and/or muscle mass (9) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); and might improves quality of life scores in gastrointestinal cancer patients  (12).

Additional studies found an EPA-enriched oral supplement lead to a potential improvement in the tolerability of chemotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer patients (10); and when combined with chemotherapy, fish oil supplements may delay tumor progression in those with colorectal cancer (11).
