First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated Jun 14, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study tests whether two types of fish oil, EPA and DHA, can improve metabolic health in people at high risk for type 2 diabetes. Over 12 weeks, 84 participants will take daily capsules of EPA, DHA, or a placebo (corn oil) and undergo specialized tests to measure insulin function, cholesterol quality, and fat tissue health. The goal is to see if one fish oil works better than the other at preventing diabetes.
