Fish Oils Don't Prevent Heart Disease




A very large study in Italy reported in May 2013 in the New England Journal of Medicine was conclusive in proving that fish oil was completely ineffective in preventing heart disease for a large group of high risk patients. Dr. Eric Topol editor-in-chief of Medscape and leading Cardiologist, recommended discontinuing all fish oil supplementation for the prevention of heart disease. The real truth about fish oil is finally being championed by cardiovascular doctors in mainstream medicine industry.

Another breakthrough study reported in Food & Nutrition Sciences Sept 2013 stated that the human body simply cannot metabolise the huge doses of EPA & DHA found in fish oil supplements. The study says 'EPA & DHA are adulterated oxidised 'derivatives' carried by LDL-Cholesterol into the arterial system and dumped as plaque where they can clog up our arteries.  Scientists now believe that the body can make sufficient EPA & DHA for optimum health benefits from the 'parent' essential oils and we actually don't need to take  fish oil supplements for heart health. Parent Essential Oils ( PEO's)  are cold pressed organic unadulterated omega 6 and omega 3 seed and plant oils including sunflower, borage, evening primrose, flax oil and pumpkin seed oil.
