the original article that this nonsense is based on is:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2274580726000932

and it’s bullshit: no mention of dose, duration of dose, how that was determined [self-reporing?], ratio of EPA/DHA, and whether the ester or triglyceride forms were evaluated.

there are two main forms of omega-3 fatty acids: EPA & DHA. so which ones was the article based on?

further, there’s a big difference between the cheap semi-synthetic ester form and the more expensive, more natural and more effect triglyceride form, so which supplement from was being evaluated? ...

Agreed.

There are many. many studies that IIRC observe the precise opposite.

Thanks to CM for posting the article, it's always good to see every angle, however one does suspect that this is pure poop.

I didn't check, however I would not be surprised to learn that at least part of the funding for the study was somehow connected to big pharma.
