New evidence published today shows there is little or no effect of omega 3 supplements on our risk of experiencing heart disease, stroke or death.
Summary
Omega 3 supplements have little or no effect on the risk of heart disease, stroke or death -- according to new research. Increased consumption of omega 3 fats is widely promoted globally because of a common belief that that it will protect against heart disease. But a new Cochrane review finds that omega 3 supplements offer little, if any, benefit.
