Figure 2

Lipid composition of red blood cells. The % compositions (mean ± SEM) of ten assayed lipids are shown. Omega 6 and omega 3 species are identified by the bracket over the top of each set. Repeated measures analyses of variance followed by Bonferroni posttests were used to determine significant changes from the baseline fraction of each fatty acid. Significant differences from baseline following each dose of omega 3 supplement are shown by: * - p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** - p < 0.001. EPA - eicosapentaenoic acid; DPA - docosapentaenoic acid; DHA - docosahexaenoic acid.
