Fish oil supplements for the heart (Part 2)
Excerpt
I am sorry to tell you that studies have shown that the benefit to low-dose (1 gram per day) fish oil supplements is likely small. It is better for you to eat fatty fish such as sardines, herring, albacore tuna, and salmon, among others to get omega-3 fatty acids. The American Heart Association recommends fish (particularly fatty fish) at least twice a week. If you want to lower your high triglycerides, take a high dose (4 grams per day) of omega-3. But, should you decide to take an omega-3 supplement, look for a high-quality supplement made from a reputable company.
