Omega 3 in Cardiovascular Disease Prevention: New evidence on an old intervention
In 2013, it was identified that the Heart Foundation needed to review its evidence and position on Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fat, Fish Oil, and fish. The need for this review arose from new research being published since the previous position statement, released in 2008. In April this year, the Heart, Lung and Circulation journal published an evidence review to inform the Heart Foundation's position on fish and omega-3 intake in relation to heart disease, and will advise participants on the Heart Foundation's updated position statement and associated recommendations.
