2017, Pharmacological ResearchCitation Excerpt :In addition, clinical trials using plant stanol ester margarine or sitostanol ester dissolved in rapeseed oil margarine in children demonstrateda favourable effect on familial hypercholesterolemia parameters [152,153]. Of interest, different observational and interventional studies assessed in children and adolescents the beneficial impact of dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids supplementation on metabolic syndrome components [154–156]. Also, the favourable role of the supplementation of vitamin D on reducing insulin resistance and cardio-metabolic risk factors have been suggested in obese children in a 12-week trial conducted on 50 participants, aged 10–16 years [157].

2014, Journal of PediatricsCitation Excerpt :There are limited clinical trial data on the use of fish oil for cardiovascular risk reduction in childhood. Engler et al13 showed in children with dyslipidemia that 1.2 g/day of DHA increased concentrations of larger LDL and HDL particles and decreased concentrations of smaller LDL particles. Pedersen et al14 compared fish oil with vegetable oil contained in bread at a 1.5 g/day dose in 78 mildly overweight Danish boys.
