Omega-3 -- Good News, Few Risks

So, after I posted about Omega-3 fatty acids for kids yesterday, I wondered about any risks.

Here's a report from WebMD about Omega-3 fatty acids.

The short answer is: very limited risk. Lots of positive benefits.

And: ASK your doctor about appropriate dosing. I took it at my doctor's direction about a year ago and lowered my triglycerides by 10 points over 6 months. Good news for me!

So, be wise -- but eat more fish and get more Omega-3 into your diet. It's good for your heart!
