NCT ID NCT07078344

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study looks at whether omega-3 supplements can reduce inflammation and improve heart health differently depending on a person's genetic background. About 200 healthy adults of African or European ancestry will take omega-3 capsules or a placebo for 12 weeks each, then switch. Researchers will measure changes in blood fats and inflammation to see if certain genes make the supplements more effective.
