A research team at the Krembil Neuroscience Centre in Toronto has published a paper that suggests seal oil has the potential to help promote nerve regeneration in patients with Type 1 diabetes.
The study found that patients who ingested an omega-3 supplement derived from seal oil twice a day over a 12-month period reported an increase in corneal nerve fiber length. The paper entitled The effects of omega-3 supplementation on neuropathy in type 1 diabetes was published in the June 2017 issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
