Omega 3

Omega-3 is one of our favourite supplements – but a huge new study has found it has little or no benefit for heart health or strokes

Are there any Omega 3 devotees on here ?

I have never taken supplements, because I try to eat a reasonably balanced diet.

I don't believe there's any point taking supplements unless there s something wrong with you.

Re: Omega 3

We eat loads of fish and shellfish which is much nicer than taking supplements.

Re: Omega 3

Most supplements have been found to have limited effect. Eating fish provides a lot more benefits than just taking a fish oil supplement. The Mediterranean diet has been found to be the best diet to avoid Heart Attacks and Strokes. Indeed, Heart disease is virtually nil in Southern Italy. They eat a lot of fish, so apart from liking fish, I believe it will help my own Heart Disease. So if I have a choice between a Burger or Fish, I will always choose fish.....Yum Yum....
