A member asked:
Started fish oil 1-3 grams daily i have noticed feeling my heartbeat more in my stomach and chest when laying down or sitting? why would this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop the fish oil: Why are you taking fish oil? There's no reason for a 23 year old to do this: it hasn't been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease in any group and especially not in low risk age groups like yours. It's a waste of money and exposes you to unnecessary side effects. If you want to positively affect your health, eat fish and exercise regularly. Btw, coconut oil which you list is particularly bad.
