Omega-3 Fatty acids: structure, function, and relation to the metabolic syndrome, infertility, and pregnancy.

Saldeen, Pia LU and Saldeen, Tom (2006) In Metabolic syndrome and related disorders 4(2). p.138-148
Abstract
Omega-3s are found in oily fish. We have drastically reduced our intake of fish during the last century. Many of us therefore suffer from a deficiency of omega-3s, which has consequences for health. In this review, we focus on structure-functional relationships and the relation of omega-3s to the metabolic syndrome, infertility, and pregnancy.
