The researchers conclude that omega-3 supplementation reduces the risk of developing a heart disorder by 18%.

However, as the American Time magazine, these conclusions are questioned by some doctors who point the finger at the fact that this meta-analysis was funded by a consortium of manufacturers and distributors of food supplements (GOED). The researchers say, however, that the consortium had no say in the findings of their meta-analysis.
Six months ago, another study showed that fatty acids reduced the risk of have a 10% heart attack.
