Dietary fatty acids interact with genetic variants to modify circulating omega-3 fatty acids.
Practitioners should consider genetic factors when assessing dietary fatty acid impacts.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
We evaluated interactions between genetic variants and fatty acid intakes for circulating alpha-linoleic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, and docosapentaenoic acid.
Why this rating
Based on meta-analysis of nine studies.
