The effect of an anti-atherogenic diet supplemented with Eicolen (30% linseed oil and 70% cod liver oil, 9 g per day) was assessed in 10 patients with ischaemic heart disease and in 11 patients with ischaemic heart disease complicated by impaired glucose tolerance. The omega -3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) of fish and vegetable origin from Eicolen improved the clinical condition of both groups, and modified erythrocyte membrane fatty acid composition.
