By J. Dyerberg (auth.), R. De Caterina, S. D. Kristensen, E. B. Schmidt (eds.)

Fish Oil and Vascular Disease covers the main proper facets of fish oil (n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids) on vascular illness. The textual content contains historical past epidemiological details, dietary facets, results on a number of organic capabilities, in all likelihood mediating the results on atherosclerosis and its scientific sequelae, and provides an intensive insurance of the results upon blood strain. The publication is split into 3 major sections. the 1st bargains with the epidemiological and dietary history of the n-3 PUFA and their relation to cardiovascular disease.
