Docosahexaenoic acid, protectin synthesis: relevance against atherothrombogenesis [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2013 DHA is an abundant nutrient from marine lipids: its specific biological effects have been investigated in human volunteers, taking into consideration the dose effects. We report herein that, at dosages below 1 g/d, DHA proved to be effective in lowering blood platelet function and exhibited an ‘antioxidant’ effect.
