Introduction: Obesity today is a serious public health problem at the global, national and local level, for which the role of omega-3 fatty acids in the regulation of body weight has been studied. Objective: To know the beneficial effect of omega-3 supplementation in obese humans. Material and method: A search was carried out in four online databases where the sample size was 34 to 154 participants, all participants had a BMI> 30 and <40 kg / m2 and an average adult age of 18 to 70 years. The duration of the intervention with omega-3 supplementation was 10 to 30 weeks, using a dose of 300 mg to 4 grams. Results: Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids, for 10 to 30 weeks with a dose of 1 to 3 grams, could help improve body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip index (ICC), as well as than inflammatory modulation in IL8 adipokines and C-reactive protein. Conclusions: The evidence for the efficacy of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation for weight loss is not strong, so it is important to continue researching and reviewing its effects.
