Guess what, Fish Oil burns and decreases Body Fat
Take some healthy adults, with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of about 21.9, and put them on a totally controlled diet for three weeks.
52% carbohydrates
16% protein
32% fat
Body fat lowered about 0.3 kg on average. (+/- 0.34 kg)
Fat burnt: 0.87 mg/kg/min
Losing 0.3 kg is nothing weird if you are on a totally controlled diet.
Enter Fish Oil
Wait for 12 weeks and repeat the same 3 weeks only now replace 6 grams of fat with 6 grams of Fish Oil in our healthy adults’ diet.
Body fat lowered about 0.88 kg on average. (+/- 0.18 kg)
Fat burnt: 1.06 mg/kg/min
The energy intake (calories) was the same in both studies. Resting metabolic rate stayed the same.
So what was the effect of just 6 grams of fish oil in just 3 weeks?
0,58 kg less body fat
You burn more fat
If there was any reason to eat more fish or start taking fish oil supplements, this would certainly be one.
