Thread: HRT Exit Strategy

High doses of fishoil can actually be bad btw and cause bleeds another form of stroke and or other conditions.

Any literature on this?

its pretty common knowledge :/

You thin your blood 2 much you can cause a bleed...

just 1 of many...

Phil Stevens a well known strongman has taken up to 50g, I have done a lot of searching and can't really find any major reported incidents,I take 10grams a day. Def helps me.

just because someone has taken them and lived doesn't equal safe.
It's common knowledge you thin your blood 2 much it can cause a bleed.
This information is all over stroke type literature which I kinda have read a lot.
Including the top neurologist in my state telling me this.
A simple google search brings up thousands of results how high doses can cause a bleed.
A bleed is just as dangerous if not more so than a clot...

Ironically, taking too much fish oil can actually increase the risk of stroke.

I believe with out a drug interaction of some kind this would be incredibly unlikely but with a preexisting condition it might prove to be true. The 50 grams a day someone else said OK I can see that causing problems but 10-20 range I find unlikely but anything is possible.

yet study after study and all current stroke information says the exact opposite.
Studies saying fishoil is safe is in the 3 gram range NOT 10-20 grams.
I have extensively researched this, talked to actual professionals on the subject,
It is first grade, too much of any thinning, anti clotting agent IS BAD for you!

And those studies are done on people who have pre existing conditions correct?

This article sums it up nicely in that it all depends on the type of stroke and pre existing conditions.

There are many studies showing that fish oil lowers the chance of a "stroke" yes the type matters and pre existing conditions matter as well but arguments can be made for both safety and side effects of every drug case in point the reason this thread started clomid is a great Cancer drug but seems to have a greater indices of stroke over toremifene citrate.

Sorry for the grammar and lack of ncbi quotes but doing this on a phone is a pain in the ass.....

Also my blood work looks great at 10 -20g vitamin shop brand fish oil not pharma grade which may play a roll or it simply might be my own body..
