The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
so there's now this growing uh body of evidence that suggests that Omega-3s are anabolic and they seem to be anabolic particularly in older adults not just from a protein synthetic point of view but also from the perspective of an a kind of mitigating the declines in in muscle mass and size
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.

We'll discuss if this effect could improve muscle protein synthesis even when dietary protein intake is less than ideal a situation particularly relevant for many older adults as we age our protein intake tends to decrease and our ability to respond to dietary protein and amino acids through muscle protein synthesis weakens
We'll be exploring the potential benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for enhancing muscle protein synthesis especially in response to protein consumption this process can be diminished during periods of disuse and becomes particularly important as we age
so by resolving the inflammation particularly inside of the muscle potentially this is one way in which omega-3 fatty acids in all the populations may be working
which is to enhance the pretty-synthetic response to daily protein feeding
