Can eating too much omega 3 foods cause thinning blood?

Possibly: But you would have to take such a large quantity that you would likely stop taking it long before that would happen due to a fishy smell from your sweat glands.

Omega 3: Not likely, considering the size and dose of each pill.

Not unless Inuit: Unless you eats pounds of fatty fish, seal blubber a day, it is unlikely. Walnuts, purslaine, , flax etc. Are non marine sources of omega 3 fatty acids, but not well activated in the body. Omega 3s can interact with other meds like aspirin, couimadin, plavix, nsaids like ibuprofen, high dose vitamin e, etc. To increase bruising and bleeding.
