Fish Oil supplements useless for decreasing chances of heart disease?
mike f asked:
I just saw on CNN this morning a cardiologist saying that fish oil supplements are basically useless, that only the actual food source provides the benefits of decreasing stroke and heart disease? Is this so?
I always understood that the omega-3 fatty acids are what provide these benefits, which are included in both the fish oils supplements and obviously the fish themselves….

Can heart problems affect your hair and cause severe tiredness?
flamegirl asked:
I have recently found out that I have a heart murmur and I am waiting for the results of a scan which should show the cause. I was wondering if this would explain why I have been really ill for the last year. I have no energy and feel tired all the time, lost weight, get very dizzy and lightheaded and lost alot of my hair which continues to fall out. Could it all be linked?
Yes had my thyroid checked out and was told it was ok.
