Fish oil
Fish oil is used to reduce heart disease because it’s considered to be highly rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Even so, scientists have started to question its benefits. Not only they discovered that these supplements are not helping reduce heart attacks, strokes, or deaths from heart diseases, but they also come with a wide range of side effects.
Some of the side effects might be belching, bad breath, heartburn, nausea, loose stools, rash and nosebleeds. In order to avoid them, we recommend a variety of foods that can replace the fish oil, such as salmon, tuna, herring, sardines, nuts and seeds and plant oil (flaxseed oil).
