  They help my mood and my lipids. My fish oil is a mix though with others. I take Maxi Tears. I can't take statins.  I saw an article today that fish oil lowered death rates when people have MI's......

Sorry about the flare. They come at the most inconvenient times. I hope it's a short one.

Sorry that you're in a flare, Elaine. That sucks.

There are studies documenting the benefit of fish oil for RA. That's why I take it. In general, having a good omega-3 to o-6 ratio is helpful for inflammation, and most Americans have a bad ratio, so it seems sensible.

Hope you're feeling better soon!

Fish oil might help in rheumatoid arthritis.

Most study reviews conclude that in people who already regularly consume oily fish, fish oil probably does not have any additional benefits. Fish oil is just an ingredient in fish after all.
