The Highest Omega-3 Dose Ever Studied (25 grams per day)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 чер 2024
- When Dr. Bill Harris began researching omega-3 in the early 1980s, he was looking for an impact on cholesterol with what would be considered a high dose by today's standards: around 25 effective grams per day of omega-3 from salmon. However, rather than finding an effect on cholesterol, they found a nearly 80% drop in triglycerides among patients with Fredrickson Type V hypertriglyceridemia.
While this dose is, no doubt, clinically excessive, the tolerability of even high doses used in the past provides context on just how hard it is to determine a true "tolerable upper intake level" when it comes to omega-3. Listen for discussion of bleeding risk, omega-6 to omega-3 ratios, how the FDA set the recommended dose of prescription omega-3, and more.

I like that she allows her guests to speak and complete their thoughts without constantly interrupting. Great interview.
I am so excited to hear about this!
I've just discovered I love tinned mackerel in spring water, I've started eating 300g with my grass-fed beef. I love it and happy I've discovered I do.
Interesting information!
I never hace high Tryglicerices leves , but 2000 epa plus 1000 mg DHA took my levels under 70 ! simple amazing and my HDL on 70 . It do nothing on LDL or total cholesterol .
I was 45 yrs. old before I even saw or heard of fish oil. The computer made me need fish oil Lol
Good question, "what is normal?"
I'm over 400 just my triglycerides. Heridatary from my parents. My diet is difficult due to kidney disease. Do not like sea food whatsoever. Started Omega-3 bombs, I really hope this helps.
7 months later since your comment. Would like to hear how things are going. Was the Omega 3 helpful?
How bout an update? Did you see results?
Update
@@Dave-lr2woi bet it didn't and actually made it much worse. I took Norwegian fishoil 5.0ml to get 3.3 g Omega-3 daily for 4 months and my blood-triglyceride went through the roof, 530 from previous 165. Switching to Krill oil for a month, it came down to 135.
For heredity high triglyceride, say 500+, take Gemfibrozil to reduce VLDL that carries triglycerides to the blood. It doesn't have bad side effects like chloresterol -lowering drugs.
Bruh can u fkn give us an update?? Wtf
I'm a big believer in fish oil as it lowered my triglycerides. However, if I take a teaspoon of fish oil per day, after three days, I have heart palpitations. I do eat salmon on average about twice per week. I will experiment by taking my teaspoon twice per week. Heart palpitations are frightening.
How much omega 3 is a teaspoon of fish oil, I don't think you should go over 4g of fish oil tbh.
Increasing omega-3 levels can exacerbate suboptimal magnesium levels, probably because omega-3 can increase metabolism.
You need more potassium
@@Rs2Hackzltd the omega 3 content of fish oil varies, but a teaspoon has roughly 1300 mg of omega 3 fatty acids, so it is high but isn't that extreme of a dose.
Try with different brands.
Different composition.
do you worry about drs talking about oxidation of fish oil supplements?
Why does he say you can't fix the ratio by lowering the intake of omega 6, when that is far more plentiful in our diet that in times past? Nearly every packaged food you buy today has some sort of seed oil in it. Upping your omega 3 to fix the ratio, doesn't remove the unnecessary intake of omega 6,
He's highlighting the fact that there's now robust evidence showing that the content of red blood cell membranes in terms of omega-3 is reflective of either good or bad outcomes, and that you can't fix low omega-3 levels that reflect poor dietary intake (very prevalent) by reducing omega-6. Catch the full interview for more.
So you can fix the ratio but still have too little omega 3.. got it.
The negative effects of a low ratio appears to have more to do with inadequate omega 3 intake then harmful effects specifically from omega 6 fatty acids(which themselves appear to be correlated with certain cardiovascular health markers). That doesn't mean you should actually try to eat more fried or processed foods just that omega 6 fatty acids don't appear to be harmful on their own and you shouldn't avoid generally healthy foods like avocados because they don't have that ratio.
To address Holdem's concern I point out that omega-3 and omega-6 compete for the use of certain enzymes in the body. When omega-3 is supplied in greater quantity those enzymes are used for beneficial conversion of Omega 3 fatty acids rather than being used for harmful conversions of Omega 6. This is explained in the books by Dr Barry Sears from the earlier part of the century.
It gave me anxiety and insomnia at a high omega dose
Very good
I take a cod liver oil gel cap every night with my dinner, eat salmon twice a week, and sardines once a week (for b12). I bet my omega 3s are high!
Maybe you are taking rancid fish oil and now are in worse situation
Measure your triglycerides level.😁
Is 1g per day consider high? I sometime get racing heart beat even with low omega 3 intake
Take 3/4 grams!
I have a 2 years old daughter with Global Developmental delay. She've just got head surgery to have a bigger space for her brain. So I think I need some brain booster for her. How much Fish oil she needs to consume each day? I read on internet that for 1-3 years old kids they need about 600mg omega 3, but on the fish oil package like Blackmore Odorless it is stated the dosage for kids 2-12 years is to take 300mg or 1 capsule per day. Is it save to take 2 capsules per day for my girl? We are South East Asian. Thanks before.
Brother contact a doctor
wont this cause crazy bleeding (if done for a while?)
im trying to take 4 - 6 mg of just epa every day for the rest of my life for my anxiety / depression
4-6 mg is negligible
DHA is for anxiety and EPA for depression
I take 500 mg of DHA for my anxiety
@@Arrasel i am taking 1920 mg of epa and dha combined for my brain fog.
@@nikhilnegi9446 wow that's a lot.
I take B1 for my brain fog and it helped a lot.
Fish oil has helped me get off my antidepressant.
@@Arrasel how much B1 for how much time did you take? I have been taking B12 and D3+ke with fish oil but can't see any difference at all in my brain fog.
Can you do a video on Turkesterone vs Resveratrol vs NAD-Riboside (TruNiagen) ?
Lol, why would she compare them?
@@lovebody1570 it's the most random stuff to compare lol
Impossible! I took 3.3grams Omega-3 for 3-4 months and my triglyceride shot up, from 165 to 530. Switching to Krill oil for a month, it came down to 135.
Now many fishoils put ontheir labels: Omega-3 or EPA/DHA in Triglyceride -form....Why!
Rancid or oxidised fish oil. Fish oil has to be kept refrigerated to avoid oxidation
@@jbzaddy1980 i strictly kept it and other softgel stuff in the fridge, thank you.
@@pramuanchutham7355 you don't understand. The fish oil might already be oxidised when you brought it. Buy from ifos certified brands
@pramuanchutham7355 you fibbing?😅😅
Fish oil in Triglyceride form is the best for absorption
i take 5g epa + 2.5g dha daily and my last set of bloods had my trigs at 16 😅 omega-3 certainly lowers them!
grizzly bears eat 5 kilos of salmon a day how much omega 3 is there?
@@WiecznieNieNasycony 150g of salmon has 1.8g omega-3 --> 1kg has 12g omega-3 --> a bear consumes roughly 60g of omega-3/day
@@patchwhole a bear can weigh 600 pounds and despite the weight he have better condition many times than a human he can run many miles uphill and has no arthritis
bro how much does that cost? i cant go over 2.5 grams omega 3 cause its gonna be to expensive lol i hope thats enough tho
@@abcdefggfedcba123 2.5g omega is perfectly fine! shortly after the above comment i increased to 10g epa + 5g dha. about $50 per month.
Will taking high dose omega 3 damage the liver does anyone know please?
I'd like to know as well. What's considered high dose by the way?
For big guys who lift heavy weight 20 grams a day is very good just try it you will se

update?
It’s recommended you don’t go over 5000mg….
Wow
Funny how these comments go ghost and don’t reply for an update. Didcyou die?
I eat a 4.25-oz serving of canned sardines daily.
I would hate to live your life lmao.
@@alexworm1707
You would hate to eat the food you enjoy daily?
grizzly bears eat 5 kilos of salmon a day how much omega 3 is there?
i love sardines!
Watch out for mercurium . JOE rogan talked about his experience of eating daily canned sardines for a long time He got high mercurium levels from that so he had to stop . Yhe video is online.
I just read a new paper that proved Omega 3 increases risk of AFIB with higher doses gave higher risk
Here's Dr. Harris's comments on that... ua-cam.com/video/xdQcLEGKcWc/v-deo.html
When i take omega 3’s my heart beat gets higher or faster. So its weird. Because i thought it was supposed to fix heart problems. But like everything in life, theres always exceptions to the rules. Some peoples bodies i have learned react completely opposite of what most peoples body reacts. So always keep that info in your calculus. This is a fact most people even pay attention to. Because its rare and the exception to the rule. So people like that are the minority. But its still a possibility that you might be the exception to the rule. Always have this in your mind when you take anything that people say will do this or that if you take. ✌️
Dr. Patrick has the most beautiful, thick, luxuriant hair ...
Ok simp
Ah! but in reality Dr Patrick is actually the bald old man.
It's complicated in my mind.
Yes she's beautiful
Which always means health
Anybody will take hair like that at 93
Between Two Ferns, I mean cacti.
What about omega3/prostate cancer???
Algae oil is THE best source of Omega-3. It's where the fish get it and it has no cholesterol, and the fish don't have to be slaughtered for it.
eat salmon once a week
eat tuna once a week
eat makrels once a week
drop omega3 capsules 3-4 times a week
Thank you! ❤
wow
👍
have a look at the Innuit, must live off fish oil !!!
ohhhh you did...
QUEUE SIMPS
Just eat nice fatty choice cuts of beef
According to this researcher, even grass-fed beef doesn't provide sufficient omega-3 oils.
This woman is very attractive! Sorry I had to say it.
Don't worry, she wouldn't give you a time a day. Women are usually entitled.
High dose omega 3 can add a half inch to ones manhood
I take 10-15 grams of Omega 3 per day (Depending how many triple strength capsules fall in my palm)for 12 years now.
I had 2 tendon surgeries and cuts and never noticed any extensive bleeding. I like how in the not too didtant past all the studies before the Omega 3 meds came out never used more than 1 gram of combined Epa and Dha and often far less than 1 gram and almost always concluded there were no benefits. While with Vasepa for example the daily dose is 4 grams EPA. Fing big pharma
I just started taking 10 grams per day to treat chronic migraines. My diet has been super clean for years (lean protein, vegatables, a little fruit and healthy fats) but it hasn't been able to help with migraines. What kind of health benefits have you seen with such a high fish oil intake for such a long period?
@@brettbodie9191 Hi I started using fish oil after suffering from severe shoulder tendonitis following a 4 hour surgery to re-attach a dettached chest tendon and after 5 days all pain dissapeared , after 2-3 years though the effects on tendonitis minimise but all my blood tests which I always include inflammation markers are extremely low my diet is horrible but had a CT angiogram and had zero calcification or other issues . I am not in any way against vegetables, I think they are great for most people but for some the natural toxins they contain are poison especially for autoimune diseases. If I was you I would stay away for a week or two from vegetables especially Nightshade vegetables like tomatoes , peppers etc.
Fish oil won't do anything for you migraines if you want a solution start taking a couple of capsules a day of Feverfew herb. It is far more effective than any med out there. Once the migraines are gone you can adjust the dose like 1 a day or every 2 days
@@brettbodie9191 I ha
@@brettbodie9191 i had severe shoulder tendonitis after my first tendon surgery and it dissapeared in 5 days and made my recovery a breeze for 2-3 years I was like superman but after your body gets used to it but my systemic inflammation levels according to frequent blood tests show very low inflammation despite my diet being kind of atrocious. Had a coronary heart angiogram (at 50)and showed zero calcification or any other issues.
I am in no way against vegetables they are great for most people but for some people they are poison especially for autoimmune diseases. I would give it a try to stay away from them for a week or two. Especially the family of nighshade vegetables.
I do not believe omega 3's will cure your migraines. I would still take them for infflamation, heart issues, brain and eye health but I would definitely add 2 capsules/day of Feverfew herb it is far better than any other medication. Start 2 caps pre emptively and once you stabilise you can adjust the dose 1/day or 1/2 days
@@brettbodie9191 sorry I wrote two long replies an youtube keeps erasing them so will keep it short. The main thing I actually observed is that it stops tendonitis and reduces systemic infflamation my blood tests Crp is always very low.
To solve your migraines start taking pre emptively a herb called Feverfew start 2 caps/day and arrange dose accordingly. It is far better than any migraine medivine
