花班，我可很认真看了那篇降胆固醇的文章！一上来，专开一贴。

我4年前systemically reviewed about 2 thousand peer-reviewed articles regarding impact of Omega-3 fatty acids on lowering cholesterol level. It's clear at the dose of EPA (one of the active ingredients in fish oil) no less than 1,700 mg per day lowers cholesterol level significantly.

In general, one research article is not enough to conclude any significant effects, particularly those not well designed.
