Studies to the ...: Over the years one can find several other studies which suggest that Fish Oil can be beneficial in modifying the hardening of Arteries (Atherosclerosis) that could contribute to some Heart/Blood vessel/Brain (strokes) disorders. Studies to the contrary also abound. If one has been taking Fish Oil for yrs due to family History of heart disease and one is doing well without symptoms. Why change now
