We examined the effects of omega-3 supplementation on rheumatoid arthritis through a meta-analysis of 18 randomized controlled trials involving over 1,000 patients.
Our findings showed that omega-3 increased beneficial fatty acids and decreased triglyceride levels and tender joint counts.
However, while there were some reductions in inflammation markers, these changes weren't statistically significant, suggesting that omega-3 might not drastically alter disease activity overall.

We conducted a systematic review of randomized placebo-controlled trials to investigate whether omega-3 fatty acids can benefit those with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Our analysis of 23 studies found that while there were some signs of reduced pain and fewer tender and swollen joints, the effects were minimal and not clinically significant.
Additionally, we noted a small reduction in the intake of NSAIDs and c-reactive protein levels, but overall, the evidence quality was low. Thus, omega-3 supplementation appears to have limited effectiveness in managing RA symptoms.

We examined the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on autoimmune diseases through a comprehensive review and a Mendelian randomization analysis. Our findings suggest that omega-3 fatty acids can help reduce disease activity and lower inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
However, while the evidence is promising for RA, there was no consistent proof of omega-3s aiding other autoimmune conditions. Overall, further research is needed to build on our understanding of omega-3 fatty acids across various autoimmune diseases.

Vitamin D increase
This is a splendid product! My rheumatologist first prescribed this omega for my rheumatoid arthritis. Initially, my vitamin D level was just 17 ng/ml, but after consuming an entire bottle of vitamin D3, it rose to 40. Now, I take one capsule every morning starting in the autumn. I highly recommend this brand!

Reduces stiffness
Excellent product! Omega-3 derived from fish oil helps prevent osteoporosis by blocking bone loss and counters inflammation. It relieves joint pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis and can reduce the use of NSAIDs, which often cause gastrointestinal discomfort, enhancing mobility and decreasing pain.

Promising therapy for rheumatoid arthritis
We explored the impact of a lipid mediator derived from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on rheumatoid arthritis. In our study, the mediator showed promise in reducing inflammation in mice with collagen antibody-induced arthritis.
This treatment significantly decreased joint swelling and improved overall arthritis symptoms. Additionally, it lowered levels of harmful cytokines in the serum and boosted protective cytokines.
Our findings suggest that this lipid mediator could be a beneficial addition to rheumatoid arthritis therapy, potentially alleviating symptoms and repairing joint damage.

This study focused on how omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids might influence disease activity in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We examined the serum profiles of 669 patients and identified distinct fatty acid patterns.
Our findings revealed that a higher presence of omega-3 fatty acids was linked to lower disease activity after six months. Similarly, an omega-6 profile also showed reduced disease activity. These results suggest that incorporating these fatty acids could beneficially impact RA management.

We examined the potential benefits of omega-3 fatty acids on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) through a systematic review of 71 studies. Our findings suggest that a diet rich in these fatty acids may help reduce pain and disease activity in RA patients.
Consuming fish, a primary source of omega-3s, could also lower the incidence of RA. Given their anti-inflammatory properties, we believe that integrating omega-3s into treatment plans, alongside standard medications, could significantly enhance the quality of life for those living with RA.

We explored the impact of omega-3 fatty acids on pain relief in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi).
By analyzing lipid levels, we found that those on JAKi showed a significant increase in omega-3 fatty acids and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
Notably, 66.7% of these patients reported manageable pain after 24 weeks, and the reduction in pain correlated with the rise in DHA levels. This suggests that omega-3 fatty acids may play a key role in enhancing the pain-relief benefits of JAKi treatment.

Joint pain relief
Omega-3s support joint health, prevent osteoporosis, and fatty acids alleviate inflammation and combat bone loss. They also ease joint pain, help mitigate the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, and slow the deterioration of articular cartilage in the case of arthrosis, which is crucial for me.
