It turns out that fish oil might not be such a great thing after all for humans. Not that it's bad, just that it isn't anything special.
Does that mean we can throttle back on the menhaden fishing?
Entire fish oil industry may be based on a flawed study
The gist of this is, supposedly Eskimos had healthy hearts despite mostly existing on saturated fats and fish, but now it turns out that the Eskimos don't have healthier hearts than most of the rest of the people in the world.
So lay off the fish oil. And don't eat much tuna either, it has too much mercury. Stick to the salmon, the shrimp, and the tilapia.
