Description
Fish oil is a dietary supplement derived from oily fish and contains omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, primarily eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). These fatty acids are components of cell membranes and contribute to normal physiological functions. Fish oil products vary in their EPA and DHA concentrations, serving sizes, and formulation. Eating fish as part of a balanced diet is recommended, while supplementation may be appropriate for certain individuals. The effects of fish oil depend on dosage and health circumstances, and high doses may increase bleeding risk, particularly when combined with certain medications.
