Is omega 3-6-9-plus good for a diabetic? consumer reports magazine says it doesn't help the diabetic's heart health. what's your take on it?

CR is right: Consumer reports was referring to fish oil, not fresh wild salmon, etc. Wild salmon contains omega-3s, but also vitamin d. It reduces cholesterol, is anti-inflammatory and is a mild anti-coagulant. It is a healthy source of fatty acids and it is fine for diabetics.

Omega 3=snake oil: Krill oil and fish oil are the new snake oil, both are high in omega 3 fatty acids which are extremely fragile. Omega 3 fish oils reduce triglycerides by impairing the liver's ablility to make them. However the oxidative stress caused by fish oil actually raises LDL cholesterol. Some day we may use the phrase "this is just more fish /krill oil" or "here comes the fish/krill oil salesman".
