Omega-3 fish oil may benefit gut health and lipid metabolism in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), according to new research.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study published in the journal Nutrients, assessed the effects of omega-3 fish oil supplementation in patients with T2DM, finding that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) may influence the structure and function of gut bacteria.
The authors from Nanjing, China, said the results “may have significant implications for gut health and systemic inflammation, both of which are pivotal in the management of diabetes”.
