According to a study that appears in the most recent Journal of the American Medical Association, those who took four grams of omega-3's for 58 weeks showed very little risk in preventing a relapse of Crohn's than those on placebo.
Folks, Crohn's is a serious gastrointestinal disorder which in no way can prevent relapse just by taking omega-3. Omega-3 is definitely part of an integrative approach to healing symptoms, but without focusing on dietary modification, no amount of omega-3 in the world will help. of course, this study did not address dietary modification.
Once again, a poorly structured study using a single substance to act as a cure.
NOTE: a significant drop in triglycerides was seen in those taking the omega-3's versus the placebo. This is something that omega-3 is known for and has been copiously researched.
