Abstract
Background
Omega-3 fatty acids supplementation may protect against exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) through its anti-inflammatory properties. The purpose of the present meta-analysis was to evaluate the effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on inflammatory markers following EIMD in trained and untrained individuals.
Methods
Medline, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases were systematically searched up to April 2023. The Cochrane Collaboration tool was used to assess the risk of bias and evaluate the quality of the studies.
Results
Omega-3 supplementation significantly reduced interleukin (IL) 6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-ɑ, and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations.
Conclusion
The current meta-analysis indicated the efficacy of omega-3 in reducing the serum levels of inflammatory markers in healthy individuals, overall, and in subgroup analysis. Thus, omega-3 may be a priority EIMD recovery agent for interventions.
