10 Side Effects of Fish Oil
Fish Oil Side Effect #2: Bleeding
Excessive consumption of fish oil can lead to bleeding, generally in the gums or the nose. This is because fish oil can prevent the body from blood clotting.
Many people associate blood clotting with heart attacks, but it’s actually a necessary part of our health. If our blood didn’t clot, then we wouldn’t be able to heal after we get a wound. Therefore, by preventing our blood from clotting properly, fish oil can actually cause us to bleed.
