Epidemiological studies of the dietary intake of specific n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and anatomical subsite‐specific colorectal cancer (CRC) are limited. We examined the prospective associations of total n‐3 PUFA, marine‐derived n‐3 PUFA [combined eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)], and alpha‐linolenic acid (ALA) as plant‐derived n‐3 PUFA with the risk of CRC by subsite in the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study.
