Not too long ago – fish-oil supplements were all the rage. Not any more!
Now, experts are saying that fad needs to fade away. A recent study found that fish-oil pills do NOT protect against heart attack or stroke. It warns that nonprescription fish-oils are not well regulated for quality and purity. They could even interfere with other medications you take. Another study has found a potential link between men who take fish-oil and prostate cancer.
If you still take fish-oil, make sure to discuss the latest findings with your doctor. If it’s determined that fish-oil is something you need, you should follow his or her recommendations.
