TWT: Is Oxidized Fish Oil Really Bad for You?

One of the most common concerns we hear is that consuming omega-3 fatty acids might be harmful because they are polyunsaturated fats, which can oxidize easily…

But what does the research actually say?

On today’s show, I’ll dive into specific studies and explore industry standards to determine whether omega-3 fatty acids are truly beneficial or potentially harmful to the body.

Join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3175 as we tackle the controversial topic of omega-3s and oxidation, and uncover what the science really shows. Enjoy the episode, and let me know your thoughts!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways:

1. What is Oxidation of Omega-3 Fatty Acids:

The oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids occurs when they react with oxygen, leading to the formation of oxidative products. Oxidation can contribute to increased free radical activity.

2. What Does the Research Show:

Omega-3 products typically include antioxidants and are produced using specialized processes to control oxidation. Research indicates that oxidation in fish oil does not have negative effects. Scientific studies and third-party lab results also show that the majority of omega-3 products meet GOED’s stricter limits for peroxide and p-anisidine values.

3. What to Look For:

To ensure you’re using the cleanest and safest product, choose one that is GMP-certified for good manufacturing practices, contains low-mercury fish, and has triglyceride-bound omega-3s. Opt for products that have undergone third-party heavy metal testing, and look for a small, dark bottle with a plastic stopper to minimize oxidation.
