Key result
Higher fish intake linked to substantially lower coronary heart disease risk, primarily nonfatal cardiac events.
Why the study?
Does a higher intake of fish and n3 fatty acids reduce the risk of coronary heart disease compared with a modest fish intake in middle-aged Japanese persons?
Does a higher intake of fish and n3 fatty acids reduce the risk of coronary heart disease compared with a modest fish intake in middle-aged Japanese persons?
Higher fish and n3 fatty acid intake is associated with a substantially lower risk of coronary heart disease, particularly nonfatal cardiac events, among middle-aged Japanese individuals.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports hypothesis of lower nonfatal CHD risk with higher fish intake; leaves open causality and practice change pending trials.
Compared with a modest fish intake of once a week or &20 g/d, a higher intake was associated with substantially reduced risk of coronary heart disease, primarily nonfatal cardiac events, among middle-aged persons.

Iso et al. (2006) studied this question. Higher fish intake compared with modest intake (once weekly or ~20 g/d) was associated with a substantially reduced risk of coronary heart disease, primarily nonfatal cardiac events.
