Conclusion of this study
FO supplements blunted the endocrine stress response and the increase in body temperature, but had no impact on cytokine production after LPS. These findings conflict with the postulated anti-inflammatory effects of FO on arachidonic acid metabolism and cytokine release. These results suggest that FO may exert beneficial effects in sepsis though non-inflammatory which require further investigations.
