In recent years, many Americans have embraced vitamin D and fish oil pills, their enthusiasm fueled by a steady trickle of suggestive research studies linking higher levels of vitamin D with lower rates of cancer and other ills, and fish consumption with reduced heart disease.
Now a large and rigorous government-funded randomized trial — the only such study of omega-3 fish oils ever carried out in healthy adults, and the largest trial ever done of high-dose vitamin D — has found the supplements do not lower cancer rates in healthy adults. Nor do they reduce the rate of major cardiovascular events, a composite of heart attacks, strokes and deaths from cardiovascular disease. The trial is of the kind considered the gold standard in medicine.

This is some.sort of middle finger to 'Big Pharma' conspiracy theorists. Seems like any remedy heavily marketed as the magical pill be it yoga, acupuncture,homeopathy and other BS are pure scams

Everywhere we have become morons buying into killer bullshit. Deadly 'vegetable' cooking oil, grains, alcohol which are causing the cancers, diabetes which are sustainingthe pharmaceutical industry. Any food item promoted since the 70s is a death agent.
Pharmaceuticals and not bankers are now running the world.
Take even ARVs - big business now with around guaranteed 2 million customers in Kenya.
