Causal impact of genetically-determined fish and fish oil intake on epigenetic age acceleration and related serum markers
Our analysis shows that consuming fish oil, whether through whole food or as a supplement, can have a rejuvenating impact as measured by PhenoAge and GrimAge acceleration. We have also provided evidence further linking fish oil intake and lower triglyceride levels. These results, based on robust MR-based analyses, emphasize the effectiveness of dietary choices in modifying emerging measures of healthspan.
