Singapore Prison Studying Effects of Fish Oil on Violence

A new study being planned will test the effects of omega-3 fish oil on reducing violent behavior for inmates in the Singapore Prison System. They are modeling a study from the UK published in 2002, where 231 prisoners were given fish oil supplements and researchers observed a one-third drop in violent incidents. This study also echoes other similar studies, such as this one on fish oil reducing road rage!
