2 Distribution of some major diseases in Greenland Eskimos, Disease No. of cases Expected no. of cases Cancer (all forms) Apoplexy Epilepsy 16 8 Peptic ulcer Multiple sclerosis 0 2 Psoriasis 2 40 Bronchial asthma 1 25 Diabetes mellitus 1 9 Acute myocardial infarction 3 40 The Eskimo Diet Incidence of heart disease is 7.5% of predicted Traditional diet is rich in fat Whale and seal meats are eaten almost every day High intake of Omega-3 3 PUFA (> 12% of energy) Intake of n-3 n 3 PUFA (g/day) Eskimo Adult UK EPA 4.6 DPA 2.6 < 0.25 DHA 5.9 Bang et al. (1980) American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 33;
3 Dietary sources of long chain n-3 n 3 PUFA Long chain n-3 n 3 PUFA (EPA, DPA, DHA) found in: oily fish (tuna, herring, mackerel, salmon); fish oils (e.g. cod liver oil). Metabolism of n-6 n 6 and n-3 n 3 PUFA Linoleic acid (18:2n-6) α-linolenic acid (18:3n-3) 3) GLA (18:3n-6) 6-desaturase Elongase 18:4n-3 DGLA (20:3n-6) 5-desaturase Arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) 20:4n-3 EPA (20:5n-3) FOUND IN OILY FISH & FISH OIL DPA (22:5n-3) DHA (22:6n-3)
4 UK Recommendation for n-3 n 3 PUFA Intakes Department of Health, 1994 & Scientific Advisory Committee for Nutrition, 2004: Individuals should consume at least 2 portions of fish per week, one of which should be oily. Current average intakes are 0.3 portions per week and 70% of adults eat no oily fish at all. Other recommendations for n-3 n 3 PUFA Intakes NICE Patients should be advised to eat at least two to four portions of oily fish per week. If they are not achieving this and have had an MI within the past 3 months consider providing at least 1g daily of omega-3 3 acid ethyl esters treatment licensed for secondary prevention post MI for up to 4 years. AHA, US 500mg/day EPA+DHA 1.0g/day EPA+DHA- diagnosed cardiovascular disease
5 Current UK Intakes of EPA and DHA Givens & Gibbs (2006) Euwijk & Vermunt (2007) SACN recommendation NICE recommendation 246 mg/d 244 mg/d 450 mg/d 1000 mg/d Fish Consumption & CHD Mortality: A Meta-Analysis 11 eligible studies including individuals with an average of 11.8 y of follow-up. Fish intake Pooled RR 1-33 times per month 0.89 (95% CI 0.79 to 1.01) Once per week 0.85 (95% CI 0.76 to 0.96) 2-44 times per week 0.77 (95% CI 0.66 to 0.89) 5 or more times per week 0.62 (95% CI 0.46 to 0.82) Conclusion: Each 20 g/d increase in fish intake was related to a 7% lower risk of CHD mortality (P=0.03). He et al., (2004) Circulation 109;
6 Intervention- The DART Study 2033 men aged <70y who had suffered an MI Advised to eat oily fish or take fish oil supplements (3 x 0.5g/d) vs no advice CV events and mortality followed for 2y % survivors Oily fish No advice 29% reduction in mortality 16% reduction in CV death Time Burr et al. (1989) Lancet ii, Intervention- The GISSI Study 11,324 men who had suffered MI in the previous 3 months Fish oil vs no treatment (1g n-3 n 3 PUFA/d) Follow-up for 2y Relative risk in fish oil group Death, non-fatal MI, stroke 0.90 CV death, non-fatal MI, stroke 0.85 GISSI Prevenzione Investigators (1999) Lancet 354,
7 N-3 3 PUFA benefit CVD outcomes: systematic review Included 14 RCTs, 25 prospective cohort studies and 7 case- control studies of fish oil supplements or diets high in n-3 n 3 PUFA Evidence suggests that increased consumption of n-3 n 3 PUFA reduces the rates of all-cause mortality, cardiac and sudden death, and possibly stroke. However, a-linolenic a acid has no effect. Wang et al., (2006) Am J Clin Nutr 84; Risks and benefits of omega-3 3 fats: systematic review Included 48 RCTs and 41 cohort studies (short and long chain) Results inconsistent No strong evidence of reduced risk of total mortality or cardiovascular events This systematic review includes the angina study by Burr et al., which has been much criticised Hooper et al., (2006) Br Med J 332;
8 The OMEGA Study 3851 patients days after MI undergoing standard therapy (including coronary angiography & other intervention) 1 g/d omega-3 3 ethyl esters (460 mg EPA, 380mg DHA) or 1g olive oil (placebo). Follow-up for 1 yr- all primary and secondary events Results of the OMEGA study No effect on sudden cardiac death. No effect on total mortality. No effect on non-fatal events. Low overall numbers of events. Beneficial effects of n-3 n 3 PUFA overestimated? Power based on 45% risk reduction in absence of CV therapy. A 30% effect would require ~20,000 patients. High levels of fish consumption. Rauch et al., (2010) OMEGA, a randomized, placebo-controlled controlled trial to test the effect of highly purified omega-3 3 fatty acids on top of modern guideline-adjusted therapy after myocardial infarction. Circulation 122, Kromhout study MI patients, 60-80y, receiving antihypertensive, anti- thrombotic and lipid modifying therapy. 40 months intervention with margarine: EPA+DHA (400mg/d), ALA (2g/d), EPA+DHA+ALA or placebo. Primary endpoint: rate of major CV events (fatal, non-fatal, CV intervention). Results 671 CV events (13.9%). No effect of any treatment. Low dose.
