Have you ever wondered what fish oil does to your health and vision? Over the years, Professor Brian Peskin’s specialty has become essential fatty acids. However, he doesn’t like the term because “acid” is in it. Instead, he calls them Parent Essential Oils (PEOs). It’s the most powerful anti-inflammatory there is. It’s also a vasodilator, so it gives you increased blood flow. The benefits go on and on. Fatty acids, which can be found in fish oil, are tied to almost every biochemical reaction in your body.

What Are Essential Fatty Acids?
All anybody needs to know about this, to begin with, is that there are two essential fatty acids: parent omega-6 and parent omega-3. Your body can’t make either of them. If you don’t get them from food or from supplements, you’re very short.
What Are the Benefits of Essential Fatty Acids?
You may say, “Big deal. I’m short on these. Who cares?” For starters, every one of your 100 trillion cell membranes has 25 percent to 33 percent of these, so they are actually the brick and mortar of every cell. They also lead to making the biggest anti-inflammatory your body has, PEG1 or prostaglandin series 1.
What Is Fish Oil?
Fish oil is DHA and EPA. What people don’t realize is DHA and EPA are used very little in the body. The brain and central nervous system do use them. Outside of that, it’s next to zero, so the daily requirement is no more than 15 milligrams. The average recommendation today is 20 to 500 times over what the body actually needs.
Why Does It Have a Fishy Smell?
What everybody needs to understand is that DHA and EPA have five and six double bonds. The more double bonds there are, the faster the substance turns rancid. This is the fish smell in the supplement section of the supermarket. That is rancid oil.
How Does Fish Oil React in the Body?
It turns out DHA and EPA become rancid spontaneously at room temperature, never mind 98.6 in your body. At 70 degrees, they’re rancid. DHA and EPA are in fish to keep the membrane of the fish fluid in freezing water. You have to ask yourself if you are living in freezing water. Of course, the answer is heck no. You’re living in something way above freezing all the time.
Should I Take Fish Oil?
That is grave cause for concern because the eye nervous system in the brain has about 14 percent DHA and EPA in it. If you overdose it by taking the fish oil supplements the way they’re prescribed most commonly, you’re going to put too much into the tissue.
Professor Peskin tells us that there’s no reason to take any fish oil whatsoever. All the 21st-century science shows your body makes plenty of it from the parents. This has been one of the big things in medicine.
Professor Peskin gives us many examples and studies showing most people are looking at outdated, wrong analytical measurements. We have been given the wrong information. In the past, they made estimates that were much too high, so people thought you needed a lot of DHA and EPA, and you don’t.
Is Krill Oil Good for You?
If you ever look at a krill, it is this wicked small shrimp. It’s great food for a whale, not a human being. Humans don’t eat that. First thing when you hear where we’re getting this from, look at it. Would it be food for a human? The answer is no. It is less dangerous than the oil from fish because there are less DHA and EPA in it. It’s less of a poison if you want an answer to what it is. It’s still absolutely wrong and it’s not needed at all.
What Are the Risks of Taking Fish Oil?
Fish oil increases the risk of colon cancer. This was discovered on August 26, 2010 during cancer research. Researchers gave mice a high dose of fish oil, it made the colon cancer worse, and the lead investigator was shocked. They thought it would help the mice, but it made them worse.
