Summary
This study looks at why having low 'bad' cholesterol might actually increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. Researchers think that when LDL enters fat tissue, it causes problems that lead to diabetes. They will test if taking omega-3 fish oil for 6 months can reverse these problems in 48 adults aged 45-74 with normal cholesterol and excess weight.
