The authors of this study, published in the prestigious <em>Gut<\/em> journal, used the database from the <em>Nurses\u2019 Health Study<\/em> and the <em>Professionals Follow-up Study<\/em> to determine mortality from any cause and as a consequence of colon cancer in a sample of 1,659 patients diagnosed with colon cancer by reference to their omega 3 fatty acid intake before and after the cancer diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It was observed that those patients with a higher intake of omega 3 had a lower mortality than the mortality typically associated with colon cancer itself. The patients with a daily intake of less than 100 mg of omega 3 had a mortality from the cancer itself that was 41% higher than those who consumed more than 300 mg a day. In addition, it was also observed that where patients post-diagnosis had intentionally increased their omega 3 intake by at least 150 mg there was a corresponding reduction in mortality of around 70% compared to those who maintained the same intake level as before they were diagnosed.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1057 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neolifesalud.com\/imagenes\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Revision-bibliografica.jpg\" alt=\"Bibliographic review: effects of increasing your protein intake\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A diet rich in omega 3 before or after the diagnosis of colon cancer helps to improve survival prospects in these patients.
