University of Virginia (UVA) researchers investigated the relationship between pulmonary fibrosis and omega-3 fatty acids. Higher blood levels of omega-3 were associated with improved lung function and longer survival without a lung transplant. Clinical trials are needed to determine if raising omega-3 levels can help people with pulmonary fibrosis. Omega-3 fatty acids have various health benefits and may protect against interstitial lung disease. More research is needed to understand the protective mechanisms of omega-3 and its specific advantages.
