We analyzed various trials to see how omega-3 fish oil affects rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Our research included 18 randomized controlled studies with 1,018 RA patients. The results showed omega-3 supplementation significantly increased beneficial omega-3 fatty acids, like EPA and DHA, and reduced triglycerides and tender joint count.
However, it didn't lead to significant changes in some inflammation markers and overall disease activity. While there are positive outcomes regarding certain symptoms, we found no remarkable evidence for its effectiveness in reducing inflammation levels.

We investigated how docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) impacts osteoarthritis (OA), which is a common joint disease in older adults. Using both human and rat models, we found that DHA can enhance chondrocyte (cartilage cells) growth while reducing cell death.
Moreover, DHA treatment thickened cartilage and lowered degeneration compared to untreated OA models. Additionally, it improved the overall health of chondrocytes by promoting autophagy, which helps recycle damaged cellular components. Our findings suggest that DHA could be a promising therapy for OA treatment.

We conducted a study to understand how various dietary factors, including oily fish, affect rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Through advanced genetic analysis, we found that higher consumption of certain foods, particularly oily fish, appears to lower the risk of developing RA. This suggests that incorporating more oily fish and cereal into our diets could be beneficial for those at risk or living with RA. However, other dietary factors did not show significant links to RA risk.

No more prescriptions for my leg injury. This does better for me. I take it every day and no longer use prescription drugs for post-injury arthritis. I appreciate that there are no side effects like I had with medications such as Celebrex and Tramadol. It seems to control swelling and pain effectively. I know it works because if I cease taking it, the pain returns. I love the idea of a natural remedy rather than a synthetic prescription that was tough on me.

Less aching and mood swings. I've used them extensively and found them easy to swallow. I've had better sleep with less pain, leading to improved mood. A perfect addition to my arthritis medications—I'll reorder.

We explored whether omega-3 fatty acids could help slow down osteoarthritis (OA) by changing how chondrocytes, the cells in our cartilage, respond to mechanical forces.
Our findings indicated that omega-3s significantly reduced chondrocyte sensitivity to compression and certain chemical signals linked to OA progression.
Interestingly, we also discovered that another type of fatty acid, omega-6, may actually make chondrocyte membranes more prone to damage.
This research showcases the importance of specific fatty acids in managing joint health and offers new ideas for nutritional strategies to combat OA.

We investigated the effectiveness of a smart cage system for measuring locomotor activity in mice with inflammatory arthritis. The study induced arthritis and tracked changes over time, focusing on mice fed diets with or without fish oil.
Our findings revealed that despite traditional measurements like clinical index and ankle thickness not showing significant differences based on diet, mice given fish oil demonstrated notably increased locomotor activity. This suggests that omega-3 fish oil may enhance mobility during arthritis, highlighting the potential of smart cages for assessing disease impacts more comprehensively.
