A member asked:
Can we use omega-3 supplement daily to be in good health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unknown: The theoretical benefits on omega-3 supplements (antiplatelet effects, lowering triglycerides, membrane potential stabilization ) have not been substantiated in controlled trials to show longterm survival/health benefits. Pharmaceutical grade omega -3's (lovaza) have shown therapeutic benefits in hypertriglyceridemia.
