Fish Oil and the Prostate - what the latest study actually showed

It was interesting to read that omega-3s were elevated in these individuals. These lipids are typically involved in shutting down inflammatory induced immune responses (i.e. when you get an infection, local inflammation recruits your immune system to fight off the pathogen). The author hypothesizes that these lipids may be recruited as a result of the tumor, seemingly going against the current notion that you need dietary supplementation to offset inflammation. The study did not appear to control for dietary intake of omega-3s, or look at signs of systemic inflammation like c-reactive protein levels. This study was quite small and should probably be ignored for now until the details are fleshed out in follow up studies.
