[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 252935, member: 43589"] Interesting study here on Omega 3 supplementation and fat loss. This was a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial involving 36 athlete men. The duration of the project was three weeks. The inclusion criteria were: 1) athlete volunteers who were ranked nationally or players of a professional sports league (football, volleyball, swimming, etc.); 2) age range of 20 to 30 years; 3) BMI between 18.5 to 25 kg/m2; 4) avoidance of any dietary supplements, vitamins, minerals, and protein powders at least six months before and throughout the intervention; 5) Not having a history of coagulopathy blood disease, liver damage, kidney disease, pancreatitis, inflammatory diseases, diabetes, cancer, thyroid disorders,, and heart disease; 6) not smoking. The exclusion criteria were: 1) allergic response to the omega3; 2) unwillingness for cooperation; 3) any major change in diet, duration, level, or type of physical activity and regular lifestyle. [HEADING=1]Conclusion[/HEADING] Omega 3 fatty acids may have an important role in affecting energy metabolism. Our findings showed that omega3 supplementation leads to the up-regulation of PPARγ and UCP2 expression in healthy athletes. These data provide additional evidence to support the hypothesis that these genes may act as a potential target for enhancing REE and appetite. Further investigations are suggested to confirm and support the recommendation of omega3s for weight reduction in patients with obesity-comorbidities.
