Taking into account (i) the anti-autoimmunity and anti-cancer properties of the omega-3 PUFA, (ii) the increasing incidence of both autoimmune thyroiditis and thyroid cancer worldwide, (iii) the predisposing role for thyroid cancer exerted by autoimmune thyroiditis, and (iv) the risk for developing metabolic and cardiovascular disorders conferred by both elevated/trendwise elevated serum TSH levels and thyroid autoimmunity, then there is enough rationale for the omega-3 PUFA as measures to contrast the appearance and/or duration of Hashimotos thyroiditis as well as to correct the slightly elevated serum TSH levels of subclinical hypothyroidism

Blood pressure regulation through the nitric oxide signaling pathway represents a systemic vascular effect, with hypotensive activity observed in some animal experiments at higher doses
LCACs induce a pleiotropy of effects on key ion-handling processes within the mammalian myocardium, manifesting in stereotypical alterations to the cardiac action potential that enhance the propensity for arrhythmic muscle activity
