Omega 3 helps the gut stay healthy, study finds
September 11, 2017
Taking omega-3 as part of a healthy diet with plenty of fibre and probiotic foods can improve the diversity of the gut microbiome according to a new study by researchers at the University of Nottingham and King's College London.
The group of scientists which includes experts from the School of Medicine at Nottingham examined the gut microbiome of a large cohort of middle-aged and elderly women. They tested the diversity and abundance of 'good' bacteria against their intake of omega-3 fatty acids – found in fish oil – and their blood serum levels of omega-3 fatty acids.
