We analyzed the effects of fish oil lipid emulsion on the prevention of deep vein thrombosis in children with intestinal failure.
In this study, we compared 35 pediatric patients receiving a soy oil lipid emulsion with 35 who received fish oil.
Remarkably, none of the children in the fish oil group experienced blood clots, whereas the soy oil group had ten cases. This suggests that fish oil lipid emulsion may significantly reduce the risk of clots associated with central venous catheters.

Omega-3 reduces clot risk post-surgery
We explored the impact of omega-3 fatty acids on blood clot risks in elderly patients recovering from proximal femoral fractures after surgery. In a randomized, double-blind study involving 452 participants, those who received daily supplementation of 1000 mg of omega-3 for 30 days experienced significant reductions in pulmonary embolism and symptomatic deep vein thrombosis compared to those on a placebo. Importantly, these benefits came without an increased risk of bleeding complications.

We investigated the impact of FJH-KO, a source of omega-3 fatty acids from Antarctic krill, on thrombosis in a mouse model. By inducing thrombosis using carrageenan, we treated the mice with FJH-KO beforehand.
The results showed that FJH-KO reduced thrombus formation and prolonged bleeding time. It also lowered levels of substances associated with clotting while boosting protective factors. Additionally, in human cells, FJH-KO inhibited the adhesion of immune cells, suggesting its potential as an antithrombotic agent.

A priceless gift from the sea! Omega is my regular purchase, and I've been taking it for three years. It has helped lower my bad cholesterol while raising my good one. My arthritic joints have become more mobile. The capsules are made from purified fish oil, so there’s no fishy smell. The results are evident not only on my hair, which has no split ends and is growing well, but also in my blood tests. Omega thins the blood, so I manage without cardiomagnes or aspirins. Highly recommend this product!

We investigated how docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and its derivatives affect platelet activity and blood clotting. Our findings revealed that DHA, along with its oxidized forms, effectively reduced platelet aggregation and activation, particularly in mouse models.
Although DHA showed some benefits, the most significant effects on blood clots came from its oxylipins, specifically 11-HDHA and 14-HDHA. These compounds appeared to inhibit platelet adhesion and thrombus formation through a specific signaling pathway, enhancing the potential for DHA as a treatment for clot-related cardiovascular issues.

We explored the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), particularly in the context of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), on blood clotting. The study highlighted how different subclasses of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), particularly HDL2 from ACS patients, interact with platelets during clot formation.
It became clear that HDL2 from ACS patients exhibited a stronger ability to inhibit platelet aggregation compared to HDL from healthy individuals. This ability to reduce clot formation is linked to the presence of specific oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids in the HDL2 particles.
We observed an inverse relationship between several oxidized fatty acids, such as 18-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (18-HEPE) and others, and platelet aggregation. This means that higher levels of these oxidized fats were associated with less platelet activation and clotting, pointing to their potential role in enhancing the antithrombotic properties of HDL2 in ACS patients.
Overall, the findings suggest that EPA and its oxidized metabolites could play a key role in modifying HDL properties, thereby offering some protection against blood clots in individuals with ACS.

Wonderful! This is my second order of this Omega-3, and it’s excellent. I take one capsule daily due to my high cholesterol. Since starting this Omega, I feel much better—fewer headaches and stable blood pressure, which used to reach up to 150 at times. I also give it to my 17-year-old son for prevention. Although the capsules are not small, they are easy to swallow, with no aftertaste or fishy smell.

We investigated the link between omega-3 fatty acids and blood clot markers in patients with atrial fibrillation. By analyzing data from over 2,370 participants, we found that higher levels of total omega-3s were connected to lower levels of D-dimer and beta-thromboglobulin, both indicators of activated coagulation and platelet activity.
This suggests that omega-3s may help reduce blood clot risks. However, while some individual fatty acids showed varied effects, the overall trend points to the potential antithrombotic benefits of these healthy fats.

We explored whether consuming marine omega-3 fatty acids affects the risk of recurring blood clots in patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Analyzing data from 595 patients, we found no overall link between omega-3 intake and recurrent VTE. Yet, interestingly, higher omega-3 consumption seemed to lower recurrence risk specifically in patients with unprovoked VTE and those without cancer.
These findings suggest that omega-3s might have protective benefits for certain groups after stopping anticoagulant therapy, though not related to overall mortality after VTE.

Omega-3s reduce thrombin generation
We explored the effects of omega-3 fatty acids, specifically docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, on blood clotting functions. Using well-designed models, we found that while these omega-3s didn’t significantly alter many platelet functions, they did slow down thrombin generation, a key factor in blood clot formation.
Interestingly, in mice on an omega-3 enriched diet, we observed reduced platelet accumulation in thrombi. This suggests that omega-3 fish oil may indeed have a protective role in cardiovascular health, particularly in moderating blood clot formation.
