May lower triglycerides and improve cholesterol levels

Your blood contains a specific sort of fat called triglycerides. Triglyceride levels that are too high have been linked to a higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Meanwhile, HDL cholesterol, sometimes known as "good" cholesterol, is well known for safeguarding the health of your heart. According to studies, the omega-3 fatty acids in salmon oil may help raise HDL cholesterol and reduce triglycerides.

Consuming up to 9.5 ounces (270 grams) of salmon twice weekly resulted in lower triglyceride levels and higher HDL cholesterol levels, according to a 4-week trial involving 19 individuals. Another research compared the effects of eating salmon to consuming other sources of protein in 92 individuals with high triglycerides and cholesterol. When compared to the men who took alternative protein sources, those who had salmon daily for eight weeks saw significant decreases in triglycerides and significant increases in HDL cholesterol. By increasing the concentration and makeup of lipids in your circulation, salmon oil consumption may improve heart health, according to this data.
