Fatty Fish Consumption Yields Surprising Health Benefits, Study Finds.
A new study from the University of Eastern Finland has found that consumption of fatty fish lowers the lipophilic index, indicative of improved cell membrane fluidity, in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism or coronary heart disease. This lower lipophilic index, linked to larger HDL particles and reduced cardiovascular risk, was not seen in participants consuming lean fish or camelina sativa oil.
