   Docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) is an n-3 fatty acid that is structurally similar to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) with the same number of double bonds, but two more carbon chain units. [4] Dietary sources. These are the top five sources for DPA according to the USDA Agricultural Research Service: [5] Fish oil, menhaden 0.668 g in 1 tbsp. (13.6 g)

   Prescription fish oil is considered a safe and effective option to reduce triglycerides. There are various prescription fish oil products that have been approved and permitted by the FDA for decreasing triglyceride levels. Prescription fish oil products having DHA work by raising LDL-C levels to reduce triglycerides, like fibrates. [64]

   Structure of 19,20-epoxydocosapentaenoic acid, an example of an epoxydocosapentaenoic acid. Both the 19(R),20(S)- and 19(S),20(R)-EDP are produced by epoxygenases.Epoxide docosapentaenoic acids (epoxydocosapentaenoic acids, EDPs, or EpDPEs) are metabolites of the 22-carbon straight-chain omega-3 fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

Oily fish meat is a good source of important fat-soluble vitamins such as Vitamin A and D, and is rich in omega-3 fatty acids (white fish also contain these nutrients but at a much lower ...

7. Omega-3-acid ethyl esters - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega-3-acid_ethyl_esters

   Omega-3-acid ethyl esters are a mixture of ethyl eicosapentaenoic acid and ethyl docosahexaenoic acid, which are ethyl esters of the omega−3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) found in fish oil. [4] Together with dietary changes, they are used to treat high blood triglycerides which may reduce the risk of ...

   These individuals took fish oil supplements of their own choosing, and it should be recognized that the amounts and ratios of EPA and DHA vary according to the source of fish oil. Omega−3 fatty acids, particularly EPA, have been studied for their effect on autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). Some have theorized that, since omega−3 fatty acid ...

9. Omega-3-carboxylic acids - Wikipedia

   Omega−3-carboxylic acids are used in addition to changes in diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adults with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. [6]Intake of large doses (2.0 to 4.0 g/day) of long-chain omega−3 fatty acids as prescription drugs or dietary supplements are generally required to achieve significant (> 15%) lowering of triglycerides, and at those doses the effects ...
