|Updated:
Sought-after nutritional therapies vitamin D and omega-3s found in fish oil have gone through intense scrutiny with the largest study to date, called VITAL. Results of the study on whether they can effectively prevent cancer or cardiovascular disease have shown that these therapies are popular for a reason, and the benefits simply cannot be ignored.
In a span of more than five years of research and treatment, the VITamin D and OmegA-3 Trial, or VITAL, has tested the rigor of benefit claims around vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish oil) against the rates of cancer mortality and heart attacks.
