Synopsis

Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 4

Marine fat, particularly in the form of fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), is scientifically validated for use in supporting and treating high triglyceride levels. Numerous randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses have demonstrated that marine-derived omega-3 fatty acids can significantly reduce serum triglyceride concentrations in individuals with hypertriglyceridemia. The mechanism involves decreased hepatic production of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and increased clearance of triglyceride-rich particles from the bloodstream.

Major health organizations, including the American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology, recommend the use of prescription-strength omega-3 fatty acids for managing severe hypertriglyceridemia. The typical effective doses are higher than those found in standard dietary supplements, with 2-4 grams of EPA and/or DHA daily being the most commonly studied and clinically used amount. The reduction in triglyceride levels can range from 20% to 50% depending on the baseline level and dose administered.

While marine fat does not have a substantial traditional use specifically for triglycerides, its clinical efficacy is well established in contemporary medicine. Fish oil supplements are generally well tolerated, with gastrointestinal side effects being the most commonly reported adverse effects. Thus, marine fat is scientifically justified as a supportive and therapeutic measure for elevated triglycerides, with robust evidence backing its efficacy.
