Fish oil pills don't improve kids' braininess

2011-09-29T14:30:22Z

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Despite some evidence that taking fish oil pills during pregnancy can help children's brain development, a new study suggests that the supplements make no difference in measures of intellect when the kids are six years old.

The findings support the results of an earlier Norwegian study that also found no differences in IQ among seven-year-olds whose mothers did or...

Study clouds picture on omega-3s and heart health

2011-09-09T10:30:26Z

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Eating fatty acids like those found in fish and certain plants may not prevent heart disease as well as previously believed, a new study concludes.

Danish researchers who analyzed the diets of nearly 3,300 people found that, in general, people who reported eating more fatty acids were no less likely over time to develop ischemic heart disease -- meaning reduced su...

DHA in moms may help babies fight infection: study

2011-08-01T11:00:29Z

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Giving pregnant moms omega-3 fatty acid supplements might help prevent infection in their infants, suggests new research.

But the benefit of docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, wasn't always obvious in the study of Mexican moms, and researchers say not all babies will necessarily be better off because of it.

With a boost in moms' DHA, "there are not dramatic effec...

Fish oil in pregnancy may not boost babies' vision

2011-05-26T11:30:19Z

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Expectant moms who take fish oil supplements may not be doing much to sharpen their babies' vision, a new study suggests.

The findings fly in the face of some earlier research that had suggested docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which is found in fish oil, improves vision in preterm babies who are given supplements in their first few months of life.

DHA is an omeg...

Diet high in fish linked to stronger bones

2011-03-30T12:00:13Z

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Older adults who eat greater amounts of fish end up preserving their bone density better than people who don't eat as much fish, a new study finds.

The study doesn't prove that such habits strengthen bones, but researchers believe that the combination of different oils in the fish protects bones from losing mass over time.

"We think omega 3 fatty acids from ...

The findings counter a large Italian study conducted in the mid-1990s that highlighted a protective effect of omega-3s for patients after a heart attack, an event more than 1.25 million Americans experience each year.

Over the last 10 years, however, prevention and treatment of heart attacks has dramatically improved, lead researcher Dr. Bernhard Rauch of the University of Heidelberg<...

Study: Fish oil doesn't help heart rhythm problem

2010-11-15T10:00:55Z

Eating fish is good for the heart, but taking omega-3 fish oil supplements did not prevent flare-ups of a common heart rhythm problem as doctors hoped it would, researchers reported Monday.

It was the first large, well-done study to test omega-3 capsules for atrial fibrillation, when the heart quivers instead of beating normally. More than 2 million Americans have the problem, which is more than an unsettling flutter — it raises the risk of blood clots that can cause a stroke...

However, the researchers are hesitant to give omega-3's full credit just yet, as other factors might be involved, too.
