Learning Outcome: Obesity and related disorders can be treated non-inva-sively with use of dietary measures such as omega-3 fatty acids. Introduction: Obesity is a serious risk factor for chronic diseases like cardiovascular diseases (CVD), type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. While treatment of obesity requires a multi-factorial approach, effective diet and exercise interventions play a large role in reducing disease risk. One approach receiving clinical attention is the use of omega-3 fats. Studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids exert a cardio-protective effect resulting in reduced morbidity/mortality. Methods: A randomized case-control study was conducted to assess the effects of dietary omega-3 fats and exercise on CVD markers. Per FDA recom-mendations, participants consumed 1-2 grams of dietary omega-3 fats/day. Blood samples were obtained pre- and post-intervention to determine indicators such as lipids and HBA1C. Additionally, diet history, physical activity, and…
