We all know that fish is nutritious and for many communities fish is an essential part of their staple diet. There are lots of health benefits with eating fish.If for some reason you do not like to eat fish then you can take fish oil in supplement form instead. This oil is extracted from fish fat.

Does any benefit for health while taking taking fish oil and omega 3 supplements ?

[snog]

Well, fish is fish, whether one eats its flesh or take the oil from the animal in capsules. A vegan form of omega three is flax seed. Walnuts are high in it, too, and many nuts. I never have understood why so many people think that ova lacto vegetarians, anyway, eat fish, or even poultry.

In a few words: vegans don't eat or use any products/foods made from animals. It's a simple as that.

Fish oil is very beneficial for the health.
It burns the fat and loses the extra weight.
Prevents from the heart diseases.
Reduces the muscles, bones and joint pain.

Are these people talking about fish spam-bots? (I'm asking, I really don't know)

Fish have those Omega fatty acids in their bodies because of what they eat- a food chain based on marine algae.

Algae is a much better source of fatty acids than fish are, on account of not having concentrated heavy metals, and not contributing as such to the destruction of the marine environment (lower on the "food chain"). And of course, not killing fish.

Flax is another source, as snog mentioned.

Neither dead fish nor dead fish oil is vegan. They aren't even vegetarian by any stretch of the imagination.

Fish are not vegetables. They are animals, they are alive, they are conscious, and they don't want to die. That it is also more healthy to seek vegan sources of fatty acids should only be icing on the cake of moral conscience.

Omega 3 and Fish oil both are recommended supplements regarding weight lose. You can use these supplements without any hesitation. These pills are easily available from the market.

Seriously? Since when is Fish Oil vegan?

Flax seed oil has the same advantages, and doesn't come from animals.

I was wondering the same thing... Unbelievable!

Anything with Omega is great for the body. There are certain essential fatty acids our bodies need, as we get older we don't eat the right foods ect. so we must take some sort of supplement for fulfill that need. When you take Omegas there are omega 3,6,9, they assist with healing ailments such as high cholesterol, joint pain, circulation and blood flow. If you are vegan, or just not up for taking fish oil, there are other oils derived from plants that carry those healing attributes such as pure olive oil, coconut oil, and some oils on the market they have in softgel form such as edible argan oil, and sea buckthorn oil that not only come from plants, but they have omegas that you are looking for, as well as vitamin e, c, squalene an immune booster, ferulic acid, and carotenoids. when taking these daily your body will respond over time in a positive way.
