Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns. Omega 3 supplements have many benefits including decreased risk of heart attacks and strokes by reducing triglycerides and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, decreasing blood pressure and tendency to blood clotting and also by increasing levels of HDL (good) cholesterol.
