Any healthy fish take an omega-3 supplement? I don’t currently take one but thinking about it. Not sure it would be beneficial tho because I’m a healthy 43 year old female with better than optimal triglycerides and cholesterol levels. Doc says it isn’t necessary but she says I don’t even need a multivitamin which I don’t agree with so wanted to poll this great group.

Lol then don't take neither. Like why would you think you need >100% DV of anything? Most supps are relatively unnecessary.

I do! I consulted a homeopathic doctor outside of my normal one to develop a strong vitamin/supplements routine. Feel great!

am borderline tri-g so just popping one even if not being asked to.

You can keep your triglycerides optimal if you avoid refined grains and vegetable and seed oils. Fatty fish (anchovies!) and grass-fed meat are excellent sources of Omega-3.

I started IF about a year ago and before doing IF my triglycerides were measure at ~90. I just had my annual physical and the measurement was 44. I lost weight during that time but I think IF was a huge factor in the reduction.

This has been on my mind lately. I feel like the research is inconclusive on whether this is worth it. Am I missing something? I want to be wrong haha
