Fish oil study

Share this story...

A new study is questioning the heart health benefits of fish oil.

Fish oil is a very popular dietary supplement as Omega-3.

But there is conflicting evidence that it helps prevent cardiovascular problems.

Researchers in South Korea analyzed data from twenty-thousand patients who took fish oil for at least a year.

They found the supplements did not reduce the risk of suffering another heart attack or stroke.

There was also no indication that taking fish oil was harmful.
