The NCAA amended Nutritional Supplements Bylaw 16.5.2.7 in January 2019. The language now reads:
…Permissible nutritional supplements do not contain any NCAA banned substances and are identified according to the following classes: carbohydrate/electrolyte drinks, energy bars, carbohydrate boosters, protein supplements, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins and minerals.

● Provide a general description of omega-3 and implications for athletic populations.
● Describe current landscape of the omega-3 status of collegiate athletes and factors associated with this status.
● Discuss implications of our research and applications to sports nutrition practice, particularly in light of recent developments in NCAA legislation.
●○ Short-chain, plant-based○ Energy source, building block for LC
●○ Long-chain, marine-based○ Inflammation, muscle protein synthesis
●○ Long-chain FA, marine-based○ Brain/ Eye health & development

• Currently NO consensus, but 2019 IOC recommendation is ~2 grams total Omega-3• Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics: 500 mg EPA + DHA daily*• American Heart Association
• General Public- at least 6-8 oz of seafood consumption weekly*• Individuals w/ Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)- at least 5g /day EPA + DHA• Individuals w/o CHD- at least 1 g /day EPA + DHA• Individuals in need of improving blood lipids- 2.4 g/day EPA+DHA
• Institute of Medicine• 1.1 g/d ALA for adult women• 1.6 g/d of ALA for adult men
• Canada: 1.2-1.6 g/d total omega-3’s

● Sum of EPA + DHA as a % of total erythrocyte fatty acids (4/32 = 12.5%)
● NOTE: Benchmarks primarily based on studies assessing CV markers & all-cause mortality
● Why use O3I?○ Lowest biological variability, results not altered in the fed state○ Correlates w/ EPA + DHA content of variety of tissues, not just RBC’s○ Relationship observed between O3I and CVD risk, but not with daily dose!
Associated w/ highest risk of CVD event
Moderate risk Optimal

●○ O6:O3 ratio○ Exercise-induced oxidative stress, impacts ability for recovery between training sessions
●○ Blood lipids in high mass positions
●○ Immobilized limbs and muscle disuse atrophy
●○ High impact sports and neuroprotection○ Neurotransmission efficiency- memory, reaction time

Changes in consumption of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in the United States during the 20th century, Blasbalg et al 2011 11
• O6 consumption in the last century
• O6 Food Sources- poultry, eggs, nuts, seeds, cereals, vegetable oils (olive, soybean, corn)
Population Nutrition Intervention FindingsWu et al, 2014
*Rodent study Neuronal DHA significantly reduced following experimental TBI
Desai et al,2014
*Rodent study Dietary restriction of DHA Heightened response to TBI
Amen et al, 2011
30 retired NFL players (signs of brain damage & cognitive impairment)
-5.6 g fish oil dose
~6 month intervention
↑ Cerebral blood flow↑ Cognitive function
Oliver et al, 2016

14
● Cross-sectional assessment of Omega-3 status of NCAA DI collegiate athletes
● Are athletes consuming sufficient levels of Omega-3’s?
● Secondary Questions● How many athletes are taking supplements on their own accord?● How does intake/ O3 status relate to demographics? (Age, sport, geography)● How do reported dietary intake and blood status relate?● Post-legislation change: who should we be supplementing?
15
● 8 geographically distinct NCAA Division I institutions (Power 5)
● Male & female from a variety of sports
● Dietary intake & supplement use via previously validated FFQ
● Blood status via fingerstick measuring omega-3 index & full fatty acid analysis
16
● 21-item food frequency questionnaire
● Administered virtually via Qualtrics link and using physical paper copies
● Revised to include flax and chia, information on supplement use
17
*Adapted from Sublette et al, 2011
● After completion of FFQ, subjects offered opportunity to participate in blood testing (up to 45 fingersticks per school)○ Minimum blood requirement○ Stability during storage (spot cards pre-treated w/ antioxidant cocktail)
● RD or designated Sports Medicine employee
completed all blood work
● Shipped to OmegaQuant to be processed

●● Athletes only meeting 35% of 2 g/ day Omega-3 recommendation ● 45% of those surveyed reported they hadn’t eaten fish in the last 6 months
●● Avg Omega-3 Index observed = 4.3%
● Levels this low have been associated with cardiovascular disease● Regular fish intake & supplement use resulted in higher O3I values
