My heart failure doctor recommended I take 2,000 mg twice a day. I can't remember the exact date he recommended that but probably at least 15 years ago. It usually comes in 1K soft gels so I take two twice a day.

For me, and clarify just saying for me, I did see a 50% reduction in my triglycerides'. I started taking a statin (prescription) in 2015 to help with LDL and plaque found during a heart Catherization. That too made a dramatic difference in my LDL.

Some cheap brands use fish farms not open cold water which I was told was best. My wife was advised to take it also and at first was on a prescribed version. But her PCP said she could take the OTC brand just stay with a known brand manufacturer.

Yes I agree. All those years I was taking before PC diagnosis it could have been helping keep it at bay.

I am very careful though on my supplements. I talk to both my heart failure, and electrophysiologist about taking my supplements and sometimes have been told not to take this or that.

Thank JC for additional info and advice : )) !
I will look for wild caught cold water sourced fish oil < 3

My doctor is pestering me about high cholesterol and for years was chasing me to start taking statins . I "succumbed" to his pressure and tried Crestor in September but unfortunately I had horrible side effects as soon as I started taking it. : (
I am at normal weight and have a healthy diet so there is not much I can do beside trying some supplements and see how it goes.

I am glad to hear that for years now your lipid panel is looking great : )) -may it stay that way forever : ))) !
