Background Tobacco is prevalently used in smoking or smokeless forms and remains a major public health concern worldwide, with its adverse effects on overall health. Omega-3 fatty acid (FA) has shown its promising effects in various health conditions. Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of flaxseed oil (omega-3 supplementation) on tobacco dependence, craving, withdrawal symptoms, and haematological parameters in tobacco users. Methods In this randomised, single-blind, placebo-controlled study, 104 tobacco users (54 in the omega-3 group and 50 in the placebo group) were supplemented with 10 ml of food-grade flaxseed oil and 10 ml of placebo for six months, respectively. Their demographics, frequency of daily tobacco use, tobacco dependence, tobacco craving, tobacco withdrawal symptoms, and complete blood count (CBC) were assessed at baseline (before intervention) and after a six-month intervention. Results The demographic characteristics of the two groups were similar except for gender at baseline. There were 50 males and four females in the omega-3 group, while there were 42 males and eight females in the placebo group. After a six-month flaxseed oil intervention, BMI values showed a significant reduction (p = 0.0081) in the omega-3 group when compared to baseline; however, CBC parameters did not show any significant changes when comparing baseline to follow-up values. On the contrary, haemoglobin and red blood cells (RBCs) showed significant changes when comparing the follow-ups of the omega-3 group with the placebo group, indicating p = 0.0016 and p = 0.0163, respectively. Also, omega-3 effectively decreased daily tobacco use frequency (p<0.0001), tobacco dependence (p<0.0001), and craving (p<0.0001). Conclusion Supplementation of 10 ml of flaxseed oil per day (omega-3 FA) for six months significantly reduced tobacco dependence and cravings. Additionally, the flaxseed oil supplementation effectively reduced the frequency of daily tobacco intake and modulated tobacco withdrawal symptoms. Thus, our results suggest that flaxseed oil supplementation is a useful adjunct for tobacco users who intend to quit tobacco use.
背景 烟草以吸烟或无烟形式广泛使用,仍然是全球主要的公共卫生问题,对整体健康有不良影响。ω-3脂肪酸(FA)在各种健康状况下已显示出其有前景的作用。
目的 本研究的目的是评估亚麻籽油(补充ω-3)对烟草使用者的烟草依赖、渴望、戒断症状和血液学参数的影响。
方法 在这项随机、单盲、安慰剂对照研究中,104名烟草使用者(ω-3组54名,安慰剂组50名)分别补充10毫升食品级亚麻籽油和10毫升安慰剂,为期六个月。在基线(干预前)和六个月干预后评估他们的人口统计学特征、每日烟草使用频率、烟草依赖、烟草渴望、烟草戒断症状和全血细胞计数(CBC)。
结果 除基线时性别外,两组的人口统计学特征相似。ω-3组有50名男性和4名女性,而安慰剂组有42名男性和8名女性。经过六个月的亚麻籽油干预后,与基线相比,ω-3组的BMI值显著降低(p = 0.0081);然而,比较基线值与随访值时,CBC参数没有显示任何显著变化。相反,比较ω-3组与安慰剂组的随访结果时,血红蛋白和红细胞(RBC)显示出显著变化,分别表明p = 0.0016和p = 0.0163。此外,ω-3有效降低了每日烟草使用频率(p<0.0001)、烟草依赖(p<0.0001)和渴望(p<0.0001)。
结论 每天补充10毫升亚麻籽油(ω-3 FA)六个月可显著降低烟草依赖和渴望。此外,补充亚麻籽油有效降低了每日烟草摄入量并调节了烟草戒断症状。因此,我们的结果表明,补充亚麻籽油对打算戒烟的烟草使用者是一种有用的辅助手段。
