What are the benefits of taking fish oil supplements?
user
It’s a good idea to get as many of the omega-3 fatty acids from fish and plant sources as possible.  Omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation and appear to help with heart health and stroke prevention, particularly in men.  Some researchers also suspect that they have cognitive-enhancing effects.

Okay, so fish oil must have a lot of omega-3 fatty acids. What are some other benefits of fish oil besides heart health?
user
Other possible benefits include weight management, fertility, wound healing, skin health, brain health, eye health, and immunity.  All of these potential benefits seem to be due to the omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil.
assistant
Wow, that is a lot of benefits.
user
One fish oil supplement might have more omega-3 fatty acids than eating the omelets, smoked salmon, tuna, and fish sandwich your mom used to make for you every day.
assistant
Thanks for the information. You have convinced me to give fish oil supplements a try.

Just one caveat, this link here, which explains fish oil supplements in more detail, has some technical warnings about supplements.  I do not have a medical license or credentials, so please do not take my advice on this instead of consulting a medical professional.
