Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish such as sardines and salmon and once touted as a way of staving off heart disease and stroke, don't help after all, according to a Greek study.
Based on a review and analysis of previous clinical trials including more than 68,000 participants, Greek researchers whose report appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association said the fatty acids have no impact on overall death rates, deaths from heart disease, or strokes and heart attacks.
The message Americans may not want to hear is that eating healthy foods, not taking pills, is what helps heart health, says Richard Karas, director of the preventive cardiology center at Tufts Medical Center in Boston.

It seems like natural remedies get shot down more and more often in favor of patented medicines.
I've been taking fish oil daily for about a year now and have noticed huge positive changes in my health. I don't care what those 'studies' tell me, I'll continue taking it based off my own results.

Fish Oil is rubbish, don't take it.
Krill oil is what your looking for.

Is anyone else getting tired of having these major medical announcements...?
Frankly, I am beginning to wonder who to believe and who not to believe!
So who is pushing this agenda?

Don't take fish oil, take KRILL oil. SO called "fish oil" doesn't actually come from fish but it comes from the krill they eat. Krill oil is the purest form with ten times the amount then "fish oil" and there is NO fishy aftertaste..
