How it works
"Omega-3s have anti-platelet effects, and can lower the levels of fibrinogen, thrombin, and factor V, which are proteins involved in clotting. Omega-3s are also well-known for being anti-inflammatory, especially those from EPA and DHA. They also have anti-clotting properties. The omega-3s in fish oil have been found to reduce disease activity in inflammatory and autoimmune conditions and reduce the need for anti-inflammatory drugs. Omega-3 fats, especially EPA, have shown promise in treating mood disorders by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine activity, act on the HPA axis, and regulate neurotransmitters."
Pregnancy
