Fish Oils Reduce Lupus Symptoms

In addition, participants who consumed fish oil also showed improvements in blood vessel function is, and reduced levels of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is associated with heart disease.

Smoking can also increase the risk of getting lupus and may make the disease worse.
