        Fish oil supplements are one of the few that doctors universally recommend.

        • That was a corrective to the previous comment. I have a shitty diet and take a few supps to take up the slack. Having said that, ‘universally’ is overstating the point.

        • @0jay: You guys might want to read this.
          Looks like the only ones benefiting are the non-pharma companies.

          @dangerdanger: Assuming you’re taking them for cardiac complaints. Fish oil’s not something I’m personally invested in, though the last Cochrane study I read (take their sysreviews over JAMA anyday) suggested not enough high quality studies had been done to conduct a meaninful sysreview. This reads that the ten studies in the JAMA report may be of inadequate quality for meaningful conclusions.

        • @0jay: And which also means that there's no proof either way - that fish oil is or isn't any good.
          People will believe what they want, the Nature's Way etc people are laughing all the way to the bank.

          @dangerdanger: whether fish oil is beneficial or not — and the claimed benefits far exceed cardiovascular health — it still costs time, work and capital to extract, package and distribute. If Nature's Way is laughing all the way to the bank, it's simply for supplying a product people want. Philip Morris also laughs their way to the bank for providing a product people want, and that is demonstrably not beneficial to anyone's health.

          @dangerdanger: All nutritionists agree Omega 3 fatty acids are essential for health. These pills are a nutritional supplement.

          If you're taking them for therapeutic benefit to stave off the risk of stroke or cardiac event then you've made a decision based on very limited evidence.

          As for nutritional benefits to supplement a diet that is low in or void of other sources of omega 3 fatty acids, fish oils are a rich source of these nutrients.

          @0jay: Here's the newly-released Cochrane review, comprising 76 trials for the meta-analysis:

        • @particle: Great! Thanks, but again - it’s looking at therapeutic benefit.
