Key result
Six weeks of fish oil supplementation (5 g/day) significantly reduced postprandial mean total and chylomicron triacylglyceride concentrations compared to olive oil in healthy men (p<0.05).
Why the study?
Does moderate fish oil intake reduce postprandial lipemia compared to olive oil in healthy men?
RCT (n=25)
Does moderate fish oil intake reduce postprandial lipemia compared to olive oil in healthy men?
p-value: p=<0.05
Moderate fish oil intake (5 g/day) improves the lipemic response to a standard fat meal in healthy men, suggesting benefits at lower doses than previously reported.

Moderate fish oil may improve postprandial lipid handling in healthy men; extends prior evidence to lower doses than previously tested.
Brown et al. (1991) conducted an RCT in Healthy (n=25). Fish oil supplements vs. Olive oil supplements was evaluated on Mean total and chylomicron triacylglyceride concentrations postprandially (p=<0.05). Six weeks of fish oil supplementation (5 g/day) significantly reduced postprandial mean total and chylomicron triacylglyceride concentrations compared to olive oil in healthy men (p<0.05).
