Public Health Research

A peer‑reviewed analysis in Nutrition Research Reviews by researchers at the University of East Anglia and the University of Southampton finds that 76% of people worldwide do not meet recommended intakes of the heart‑healthy omega‑3 fats EPA and DHA. The review references guidance of at least 250 mg/day and links low intake to higher risks of heart disease, triglycerides, arrhythmias, and cognitive decline; a cardiology dietitian advises increasing oily fish intake or evidence‑based supplementation as appropriate.
