Omega 6:3 Balance Research

Numerous studies conducted by universities and research institutions have investigated the benefits of omega-6 and omega-3 balance for athletes. Some notable research includes:

Researchers at the University of Memphis conducted a study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. The study examined the effects of omega-3 supplementation on exercise performance and markers of inflammation in athletes. They found that omega-3 supplementation helped reduce markers of inflammation and improve exercise performance in trained athletes

Scientists at the University of Aberdeen conducted research published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology. Their study explored the effects of omega-3 supplementation on muscle soreness and recovery following eccentric exercise. They concluded that omega-3 supplementation may attenuate muscle soreness and improve recovery following strenuous exercise

Researchers at the University of Illinois conducted a study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. The study investigated the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on muscle protein synthesis and recovery following resistance exercise. They found that omega-3 supplementation enhanced muscle protein synthesis and may aid in muscle recovery after exercise

Scientists at Loughborough University conducted research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Their study examined the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on exercise-induced inflammation and muscle damage in endurance athletes. They concluded that omega-3 supplementation may help reduce exercise-induced inflammation and muscle damage in endurance athletes
