General description
Fish oil is derived from the tissues of oily fish. It lowers blood pressure and high triglyceride levels. Fish oil may be used to treat depression, psychosis, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder and Alzheimer disease. It reduces inflammation, enhances cognition and decreases cardiovascular disease risk.
Application
Fish oil from Menhaden has been used:
- to prevent lixiviation of the soybean trypsin inhibitor
- as a dispersant to study the fabrication and laser performance of planar waveguide lutetium aluminium garnet (LuAG) ceramics
- as a supplement to reduce colonic damage and inflammatory markers
Biochem/physiol Actions
Menhaden Oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids. When used to partially supplement a high-fat diet in diabetic rats, Menhaden oil improved end points for peripheral neuropathy by improving motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity. Decreased accumulation of fatty acids in rat livers was also demonstrated.
