TABLE 2.

Changes in docosahexaenoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid+eicosapentaenoic acid. and ω-6/ω-3 ratio in plasma

	Baseline, n = 36	Day 30, n = 36	Day 60, n = 36	Day 90, n = 36
DHA, μg/mL	50.33 (34.1)	102.64 (39.3)	96.77 (36.4)	102.36 (36.3)
EPA, μg/mL	22.41 (21.1)	65.34 (45.9)	64.01 (49.6)	64.09 (41.5)
Total DHA+EPA, μg/mL	72.73 (52.1)	167.99 (82.5)	160.78 (83.2)	166.46 (73.7)
ω-6/ω-3 ratio	11.52 (4.3)	5.31 (2.5)	5.63 (3.3)	5.23 (3.1)

Plasma concentrations of total DHA and EPA were measured by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) (PPD LLC, Richmond, VA). Total DHA+EPA were calculated by adding the concentrations of total DHA and EPA.

DHA = docosahexaenoic acid; EPA = eicosapentaenoic acid.
