Fish Oil Cancer Link Study – Could it Really Help Cancer Patients?
This study that I uncovered which looked into fish oil cancer is a few years old now, but its findings are still important and relevant today and worth repeating. It found convincing data that fish oil supplements could make a difference in some patients. This study carried out in Britain, spent time looking at how it played a part in trying to prevent an aspect of the disease known as cachexia, a weight loss condition.
