Summary

Elevated cholesterol, including triglyceride levels, can lead to the development of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. A diet that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids (O3FA) can improve triglyceride levels in a way that is safe and does not require medication.

This is a single-center, prospective, unblinded, randomized-controlled dietary intervention study to assess the impact of an omega-3 fatty acid diet compared to a standard lifestyle intervention on serum triglyceride in patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The study consists of an 8-week dietary treatment period followed by an 8-week observation period.
