Omega-3s may lower hypertension mortality
We explored the link between dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (N3-PUFA) and mortality in hypertensive adults through a thorough study involving over 26,000 participants from NHANES data spanning nearly two decades.
Our findings revealed that higher N3-PUFA intake, particularly from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), was associated with a lower risk of both overall and cardiovascular mortality.
This suggests that incorporating more omega-3 rich foods into the diet could be a valuable strategy for reducing health risks in those living with hypertension.

We investigated how fatty acids, particularly Omega-3 and Omega-6, affect pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH). Our analysis utilized advanced statistical techniques on data gathered from Genome-Wide Association Studies.
The results suggest that higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids, like DHA, might actually help protect against PIH. Conversely, an increased Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio could raise the risk of developing this condition.
These insights could guide future clinical strategies aimed at reducing the risks associated with PIH in expectant mothers.

RvD1 reduces inflammation, hypertension
We aimed to find out if Resolvin-D1 (RvD1) could help reduce heart issues and hypertension caused by angiotensin II, a hormone linked to heart problems. In our study with mice, we found that RvD1 effectively lessened inflammation, lowered blood pressure, and reduced harmful tissue changes after just 7 and 14 days of treatment. Notably, RvD1 cut down on inflammatory cell presence and various key cytokines. These findings highlight RvD1's promising role in fighting hypertension and protecting heart health.

Supports heart health
I am a huge fan of the Solgar line! Their Omega-3 is superb, and the chelated iron is excellent too! My family consumes it, and I give it to my mother, who has heart problems and hypertension. She feels great after taking it, which speaks volumes about the effectiveness of this supplement. 👍🏻

Thank you, iHerb, for this unique Omega-3 product! We will certainly reorder this! The packaging is excellent, in a light-protected bottle essential for effective use. Omega-3 is greatly beneficial for health, particularly in preventing coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis, and hypertension, especially for older individuals. It also enhances the quality of hair, skin, and nails. The primary sources of Omega-3 are fish, seafood, walnuts, and cruciferous vegetables.

We explored the effects of Resolvin E1 (RvE1) in mice with hypertension induced by angiotensin II. By injecting RvE1, we observed significant reductions in blood pressure and improvements in vascular health, including decreased fibrosis and cell growth in blood vessels.
Importantly, the positive effects of RvE1 depended on the ChemR23 receptor—when this receptor was knocked down, the benefits were lost. Our findings suggest that targeting RvE1/ChemR23 could offer promising new ways to treat hypertension.

Resolvin D2 aids hypertension prevention
We investigated whether resolvin D2 (RvD2) could prevent vascular damage caused by obesity and hypertension. In mice exposed to a high-fat diet and angiotensin II, RvD2 administration showed promise in reducing obesity-related inflammation and vascular remodeling.
While RvD2 helped improve endothelial function and reduce inflammatory markers, the study didn’t indicate a complete reversal of hypertension.
Our findings suggest RvD2 might be a protective agent against vascular damage linked to hypertension, primarily affecting immune and vascular cells.

This study focused on understanding whether fish oil can help reduce mortality among patients suffering from cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM).
Analyzing data from over 30,000 participants in the UK Biobank, we found that those using fish oil had a 17% lower risk of dying from any cause and a 19% lower risk of cardiovascular-related deaths.
Additionally, using fish oil was linked to a gain of 1.66 years in life expectancy starting at age 45. These findings suggest that fish oil can be beneficial for individuals dealing with multiple cardiometabolic conditions.
