Effect of n-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Enriched Chicken Meat Consumption in Relation to Oxidative Stress Marker Levels in Young Healthy Individuals: A Randomized Double-Blind Study.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress and inflammation are considered important risk contributors for various diseases. Over the last few decades, increasing attention has been focused on the role of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) in human health and disease. We aimed to evaluate the effect of n-3 PUFA-enriched chicken meat consumption (~1500 mg of n-3 PUFAs intake per day) for three weeks on oxidative status and antioxidative capacity in young healthy individuals. This was a randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial, in which thirty-nine young healthy people were randomly allocated to eating 500 g/day of regular chicken meat (Control group) or n-3 PUFA-enriched chicken meat (n-3 PUFAs group) over 3 weeks. Subjects' biochemical parameters, including serum lipids level, liver enzymes, serum acti
