FISH OIL ? Is there really an oil in fish? Funny! I thought that fish has no oil since it is commonly eaten by people Generally fish oil is a mixture of lipids. Not literally means greasy oil as I thought. These lipids are from cold water fish. These fish has eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These are the major content of fish that helps restore the body's equilibrium after stress or injury. Here are the benefits of fish oil: Lower the risk of heart disease, stroke and heart attack (it lessen the changes in heart rhythm). Reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Helps visual development in premature babies. It is also said that eating fish lessen the risk of chronic bronchitis and emphysema (calling all smokers). Many tend to conclude that whatever the benefits of fish will be found in fish oil supplement. It makes sense to me. Plus count the fact that whatever the impurities of fish is already eliminated in fish oil supplement. (Which is good.
