Fish oil may be hurting your brain, new study finds
- blargey 6mo ago"EPA may impede recovery from repeated concussions" The more pertinent advice would be to avoid getting concussed all the time, but if you're a NFL player, reconsider EPA-heavy supplements (DHA is not implicated).

- webnrrd2k 6mo agoI don't know, this seems pretty weak... I am certainly no expert, but there have been a lot of studies, and in reputable journals, that show at least some benefit from fish oil. One study showing that maybe there is a problem with fish oil in special cases (like confusions) doesn't seem like it's worth worrying about. Also, fish oil is well know to help with brain development. I know that a concussion is a different thing, but it seems a little suspicious on the face of it.
