Eating fish no help for heart? What new study says

Oh, no! Say it ain't so.
Is there something fishy about the scientific evidence that suggests eating fish and fish oil helps prevent heart disease? A new study shows that the risk of developing heart disease is just as high in people who eat lots of the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish and fish oil as it is in people who eat less of the stuff.

At least that was the case among men. The study showed that women who eat lots of omega-3's are significantly less likely to develop heart disease.

The study, published in the October issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, seems to throw cold water on the conventional wisdom about fish and heart disease.

In 2004, the FDA said there was evidence that consuming omega-3 fatty acids can reduce the risk for heart disease, according to Reuters.
Oops.

Still think they have any idea what they are talking about?
