Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Children with an excess in body weight, increase the risk of obesity-related co-morbidities and cardiovascular diseases. Childhood obesity may be due to diets laden with fat and lack of physical activity. Omega-3 fish oil is a supplementation that may promote a greater reduction of pro-inflammatory mediators; combined with exercise and nutritional regimens it may also help improve glycemic, lipid markers, and body composition in overweight children and adolescents.
