Omega-3 and Blood Pressure

Increasing intake of polyunsaturated fats, particularly EPA and DHA, can lead to modest reductions in blood pressure. While the effect is small—around 2 to 3 mmHg—these small benefits accumulate over time, potentially lowering the risk of developing cardiometabolic diseases. Regular consumption of omega-3s contributes to improved heart health through multiple pathways, including lower triglycerides and reduced inflammation.
