Comparative effects of prolonged intake of highly purified fish oils as ethyl ester or triglyceride on lipids, haemostasis and platelet function in normolipaemic men
Article Abstract:
A double-blind study was performed to test the absorption of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and their effect on plasma fatty acid levels, platelet function and haemostasis. Thirty-one healthy male subjects were given fish oil concentrate in the form of ethyl ester (EE) or triglyceride (TG), or a placebo over a period of seven weeks. Both formulas were well absorbed into plasma lipids, and inhibited platelet aggregation and thromboxane B2 production, with no difference between the EE and TG formulas.
