Omega-3 Reduces Body Weight and Increases Fat Loss by Raising Metabolism
March 9, 2008 · Category: Fish Oil for Weight Loss, Fitness, Sports and Athletic Uses
A new study from the Journal of Nutrition on mice has shown a benefit of omega-3 for weight loss!

Two groups of mice were fed a high fat diet, and one group was given 8% fish oil while the other group did not receive the fish oil. The results? The fish oil fed mice gained significantly less weight and metabolized more fat! Specifically, they showed an increase in production of enzymes that metabolized fat.
The researchers wrote:
“These findings suggest that an up-regulation of intestinal lipid metabolism is associated with the anti-obesity effect of [fish oil].”
This isn’t the first time that omega-3 fatty acids have been found to be effective for weight loss, as another study found that fish oil and exercise led to fat loss.
