Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Novel Insight into Cardiovascular Events, Cardiovascular Disease (CVD), and Cardiac Arrhythmias

Abstract

It is a common knowledge that fish is a significant source of docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, two long-chain omega-3 fatty acids that have been linked to improve cardiovascular health in general. The cardiac function of humans is benefited by omega-3 fatty acids found in fish eating. Previous studies have shown that eating fish in moderation lowers the risk of coronary heart disease. Recent epidemiological research on the relationship between fish consuming and coronary disease have produced mixed results. Omega-3 fatty acids may not, according to a recent study, lower the incidence of cardiovascular events, strokes, cardiac arrhythmias, or fatalities from coronary heart disease; consequently, it continues to be a contentious issue.
