This is an old thread but 1 gram fish oil per day is a joke. What kind of fish oil? What brand? A few hundred milligrams of absorbed oil didn't fix everyone right up? Shocking. Did they try 3-4gms krill oil per day? My triglycerides are almost half of what they were before krill oil (I take Mega-Red). And as cheap as D3 is, supplementing it almost seems like a no brainer.
As far as this "study" is concerned, all bad news for OTC vitamin users but they sneak in at the end regarding an extract of fish oil, icosapent ethyl, after trashing 1 regular fish oil cap per day as useless.
And then they say the quiet part out loud:
"The volunteers took icosapent ethyl, which is sold under the brand name Vascepa and was developed by the Amarin Corporation, which funded Bhatt's research."
This Vascepa extract is Rx-only (gasps) and dosed at 4 grams per day at a monthly cost without coupons of over $300USD for name brand. SMH... pathetic.
This is why we'll never get real-world solid data on the efficacy of OTC supplements. Will never happen.
