Omega-3 Improves Lupus Symptoms

A recent study presented at the American College of Rhemutaology found significant improvements in System Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) symptoms when patients took fish oil:

“This is the first study in lupus patients measuring improvements in blood vessel function,” said presenter and investigator Stephen Wright, MD.  ”After 6 months we saw evidence confirming the beneficial effects of omega-3 fish oil for improving symptoms of lupus and, also, evidence of a cardioprotective effect in these patients.”

After 6 months of fish oil supplements, there was a statistically-significant improvement in lupus symptoms.
