There was a guy who sat next to me in my office. If I didn’t know he worked at my company, I would have thought he was a salesman for GNC. He kept telling me that I need to take “fish oil” supplement, supplements for anti-oxidents and omega 3s. I said, can’t get I get fish oil from the fish I eat a few times a week, anti-oxidents from the berries I eat all week. He also said I should be taking multi-vitamins.

To be honest, I think GNC is the modern day “Snake oil saleman.”

I had borderline high cholesterol for a couple of years (around 250-275). For some other reason, I started taking Omega 3 fish oil. My levels dropped to very healthy ones (bad went down, good went up, overall and triglycerides dropped too).

All this, with less exercise and worse eating habits. I attribute it to the fish oil.
