I decided to do a little research on that topic. I started taking 3 capsules per day with each meal about a year ago after another friend who has a chronic illness told me he lowered his cholesterol levels significantly after he added fish oil to his daily regimen.
I will say that since I added Fish Oil to my diet, my triglycerides & bad cholesterol have been lower. PLEASE don't add any supplements to your diet without talking to your doctor first. Sometimes they negatively impact your regular medications.
I did some research and found the article which I am linking to this post. What I found was that although Fish Oil has not been proven to actually help glucose levels, it does have tons of other benefits for diabetics! Here are just a few of the things I discovered that fish oil can positively impact:
- Memory
- Depression
- ADHD
- Dry skin
- Triglycerides
- Bad cholesterol
- Blood pressure
- Arthritis
- Glaucoma
- Menstrual cramps
- Dry eye symptoms
- Kidney disease
- Hardening of the arteries
Talk to your doctor to make sure fish oil can be added to your regimen. I did see positive results when I added it to mine! I will talk about other supplements in upcoming posts!
