Visceral fat accumulation is regarded as one of the major phenotypes of metabolic syndrome. There have not been enough data on the relationship between the fish-eating habit and visceral adiposity. A total of 94 male participants received abdominal CT for the measurement of the visceral fat area (VFA), serum sampling for the fatty acid composition and questionnaires about their life-style. We divided the participants into two groups: whether they ate their fill (group F, n=70) or they ate in moderation (group M, n=24). Stepwise multiple linear regression analyses showed that usual alcohol consumption and lower daily physical activity in group F, and infrequent fish-eating and frequent fat-rich deserts in group M were the significant positive correlates with the VFA. The serum eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)/arachidonic acid (AA) ratio showed significant correlation with the frequency of fish-eating in both groups. Interestingly, in group M, the serum EPA/AA ratio negatively correlated with the VFA, while it failed in group F. In conclusion, the present data suggest that the fish-eating habit might negatively associate with visceral fat accumulation only in those who are moderate in eating in the general population.

The Frequency of Fish-Eating Could Negatively Associate with Visceral Adiposity in Those Who Eat Moderately
