And fish oil or omega oil pills have never changed the way I feel. Also, the long term research on fish oil is not impressive at all.
RE Fish oil.
I have always had low HDL, 32 to 34 is where I consistently test.
After one test, (32) the nurse suggested I try a fish oil supplement.
I'm skeptical, but I bought a bottle and take two daily, 1 month later
I had another test. My HDL was up to 40! 40 is still not high, but it is a
25% increase over what I tested before Fish oil supplements. After that test,
I bought walnuts and almonds and have a handful of each every morning along
with my fish oil. Again 30 days later I had another HDL test this one was 42.
One story is not evidence but I have a long written history of my blood tests
and have never been at 42. I could stop the supplements and retest, but I
have a physical coming in a couple months and I like my Doc to see the numbers.
A mustachian thing, Sam's Club has a monthly health screening. I go there
to test my cholesterol. I wouldn't test it monthly except that I was running
the Fish oil experiment.
