The first was whether the daily consumption of oily fish was more beneficial than the capsules. As far as the question of which source (supplements or fish) is most beneficial, these researchers say that both are beneficial. It provides a number of important nutrients other than omega-3 fatty acids, including vitamin D and selenium. For one thing, there are still relied upon sources saying that the benefits of omega-3 supplementation are unclear and that more research is required.

The second was whether or not advising the entire population to consume either source of omega-3 fatty acids would cause depletion of the world's stocks. The They say the evidence is "abundant". Shrimp, for example, provides none. A recent study concerning the cardiovascular benefits of a fish oil capsule raised some important questions. The report was published in the National Review of Cardiology and was written by researchers from the University of Missouri at Kansas City. But, a fish oil capsule provides for more reliable consumption of omega-3 fatty acids.

Eating seafood is a better choice than other kinds of meat. Some seafood is very low in omega-3s.

It was interesting for a number of reasons.
