Publisher's Synopsis
This book covers the most relevant aspects of the effects of fish oil (n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids) on vascular disease and includes epidemiological information, nutritional aspects, effects upon various biological functions, possibly mediating the effects of atherosclerosis and its clinical sequelae and, finally, provides extensive coverage of the effects on blood pressure. n-3 Fatty Acid and Vascular Disease is an excellent source of current information and reference for the specialist. The structure (organized in short chapters) and style, however, combine to make it easily accessible to non-specialists.
