Fish oils inhibit the arachidonic acid \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003esynthesis of thromboxane A2, which causes platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction. \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eFish oils can also cause increased production of prostacyclin, a prostaglandin that \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003ereduces platelet aggregation. Omega-3 fatty acids seem to suppress COX-2 expression \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eand the inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1 alpha and tumor necrosis factor \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003e(TNF)-alpha. Fish oils are used for cardiovascular conditions, including stroke and \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eheart disease, due to their anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic effects. EPA and \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eDHA are mainly found in the phospholipid components of the cell membranes. DHA \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eis taken up by the brain in preference to other fatty acids. DHA appears to be a major \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003edeterminant of membrane fluidity in brain cells, influencing neurotransmission and \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eprostaglandin formation that are vital in the maintenance of normal brain function, \u003c\/font\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\" face=\"Verdana\"\u003eincluding cognition and mood.
