When used to partially supplement a high-fat diet in diabetic rats, Menhaden oil improved end points for peripheral neuropathy by improving motor and sensory nerve conduction velocity. Decreased accumulation of fatty acids in rat livers was also demonstrated._x000D_ Other Notes_x000D_ Contains palmitic plus stearic acid (total): ≤ 30.0%_x000D_ Contains 20.0 to 31.0% omega-3 (octadecatetraenoic, eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic) fatty acids as triglycerides
