Stop Taking Fish Oil!

Fish oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acid, and many physicians including cardiologists have recommended it to their patients for years as there may be some heart protective properties consuming these fats. The problem with fish or supplements is that they oxidize very quickly and then do more harm than good if ingested. Also, it is not clear how much omega-3 supplementation we need. Our balance of omega-3 to omega-6 is certainly not ideal anymore. As hunters and gatherers that ratio used to be 1:1, today it is closer to 20:1 omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids.
I recommend to decrease your consumption of omega-6 rich vegetable oils and instead increase animal fats in your diet. This way you shift the ratio naturally in a favorable direction and do not need to risk buying oxidized supplements.

"Make sure the fish you're getting isn't contaminated with heavy metals and microplastics." -Just how The fu¢k are we supposed to do that?!

I have been taking fish oil twice a day for 33 years. I’m a healthy 61 year old, never experienced any issues with the supplement. I get a physical every year. If it caused a problem with my labs, I would know it. I don’t know this man, maybe he has good intentions in sharing this video, but do your own research and do not trust one source.

Doctors also once believed alcohol and cocaine were good for you too. Vet these people.

At $15 a pound for salmon I think I’ll take the omega-3 fish oil capsules

[WatsitTooyah]

Just refrigerate omega 3 to greatly slow down oxidation. Darker colors generally mean it's more oxidized.

[ritahann]

I am 60yrs old. I have been taking them for years
I will continue

[cameroncolson]

Relying on fresh fish that “might” not be contaminated from their own water source seems more risky than taking supplements that have been filtered to remove harmful toxins by scientists, this man’s logic is counterintuitive…

[AtomicSquid_]

Tell the full story man. Those “animal fats” can be full of omega 6 that cause inflammation. Factory farmed animals don’t consume the grass and get the sunlight they need to produce quality omega 3 content in their meat product. Pasture raised eggs have really good omega 3 in the yolk, don’t buy ordinary white eggs even if they say “cage free”. And don’t over cook the yolk, eat them runny or semi runny.

Next time I buy a fish in the supermarket, I will ask, "Hey, how much heavy metal and microplastics contaminants are in your fish?" Of course, I will be waiting for some very confused look! LOL!

I have very dry skin and a dry scalp. Its really bad. I've been using omega 3 capsules for 18 days so far, and it helped tremendously. Im so shocked and so grateful.

my dad was a chain smoking alchoholic he took fish oil every day died at 88

My understanding is that the threat of oxidized fish oil was overstated and is actually not common.

I stand for 20+ hours a week for work and I started having knee pain a few months in so i tried changing to a higher quality running shoe and that helped slightly but didn't completely eliminate the knee pain. I started taking fish oil daily and about a month later the knee pain was completely gone. This is just my experience with fish oil. It works wonders for me.

I have been taking massive dosage (6-8 grams a day) for 15 years and got great results. My thinking was great and my skin barely aged. I am 50 and look 35 without doing much. I adjusted to the maximum dose without getting pimples. However in the last year I starting having short breath, bloated feeling, excess of mucus, and my Cholesterol skyrocketed. Neutrophils count went down. It seems that my body was finally fed up with it. Stopped Omega and symptoms started improving after two or three weeks. From my experience it is obvious that it is a very safe and excellent supplement, but as anything it can be bad in the long run, specially if you push it. Take care people, listen to your body and intuition, and keep an eye on your bloodwork.

Fish oil cured my migraines. I've been taking it daily since 2011!

Although wild salmon and organic farmed salmon are expensive, it’s worth it! I also take fish oil from a brand that publishes the lab analysis for each batch. The brand I use is NutraSea and their fish oil comes in a darkened bottle to reduce light oxidation. I keep it in the fridge

[klila]

I take the capsules. Some people here say don’t but it cannot oxidise as quickly because it is encapsulated. Keeping it in the fridge sounds like a good idea. However so far it’s really been working for me and helping so much.

My mother is in her late 70s and she still has excellent memory. She alway does prayers to Allah (God) and never stopped taking fish oil for many years.

[blueberry]

For many years, I have been taking omega-3 pills daily. My levels of triglycerides are about 86 mg/dL. As we know, Omega-3 helps a lot to improve TG levels, and in my particular case it seems to have paid off. However, I prefer only the better products and avoid the cheap ones. You can choose either without supplements or with. Supplements are important in my opinion because they are very practical and can counteract against omega 6, which is very strongly present in all foods anyway, in order to play an anti-inflammatory role. And that certainly is very very important.

[nimrodmayan]

That's actually a good point he's making: I used to take a lot of fish oil, and I always got a headache after. But lately, I started taking COOLED DOWN fish oil (which is kept cold from production to consumption), and they make me feel great! They have only good effects and no side effects.
There's a brand that selles them where I live, I hope they're available also elsewhere in the world.
