Is it true that Omega-3 supplementation lowers markers of inflammation in adults?
Yes. A 2026 systematic review and meta-analysis of 96 clinical trials reports that EPA+DHA supplementation reduced CRP, TNF-α and IL-6, and a reference article states that marine omega-3 consumption lowers blood markers of inflammation such as CRP, IL-6 and TNF alpha. Other items offer only hedged or mechanistic support.
