* **Omega 3's contain components which suppress TNF-alpha** – Cytokines are regulatory proteins, such as TNF-alpha, that are released by cells of the immune system and act as intercellular mediators in the generation of an immune response. The omega 3 fatty acids, for example, contain several components which may interfere with the activity of TNF-alpha and other important cytokines. | * **Omega 3's contain components which suppress TNF-alpha** – Cytokines are regulatory proteins, such as TNF-alpha, that are released by cells of the immune system and act as intercellular mediators in the generation of an immune response.
