I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving celebrations.
Let me make a few comments on the Omega-3.

Cold water fish oils are loaded with Omega-3 Polyunsaturated fatty acids, eicosapenataenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Omega-3 lowers cholesterol (VLDL), triglycerides, and total choesterol levels in the blood, and also increases the level of HDL, the so-called good cholesterol.

Eskimo diet has loads of Omega-3 oils. It is very rare to see the Eskmos having a heart attack. More commonly, Eskimos are known to get bleeding in the brain. The reason is as follows:
Omega-3 works as double-edged sword. It intereferes with platelet aggregation. , thus prevents clotting in the coronary vessels. The same interference with platelet function makes the person easily susceptible for intracranial bleeds. Remember that Fish oils have Vitamin E. Vitamin E is also known to interefere with platelet aggregation and thus clotting
A note of caution : Some of the fish oils also contain, in addition to Omega oils, cholesterol, & saturated fat. Make sure to read the label and you get what you want.
If one is taking aspirin and or anticoagulants , increased bleeding may occur with the use of Omega oils.
