Supplements: What’s Really Worth the Hype? The 10 Supplements Every Man Should Take

Fish Oil/Omega 3


(to fight cancer)
Omega 3, long a popular supplement for improving heart health, actually has more scientific evidence backing its benefits for fighting cancer. It has been proven to combat cancer symptoms (increasing appetite in cancer patients, for example) and prevent colorectal cancer, while also lowering triglycerides and decreasing plaque build-up in arteries. Omega 3 deficiencies are typically found in people who have cut fats out of their diet completely. The recommended daily dose is 1500mg/day and fish, walnuts, broccoli and soy beans are all good sources.
