You could see positive results within a few months

In several studies, within 3 months’ time of using fish oil supplements, patients reported less joint stiffness and tenderness, reduced inflammation, as well as lower cardiovascular risk in RA. Although more research is necessary in order to fully get to the bottom of the benefits of fish oil and omega-3, today’s findings strongly suggest that in combination with a well-balanced diet, fish oil can help to support RA by alleviating the symptoms it presents, including the root of the disease – inflammation. The choice is individual so try it out for yourself and see if it lives up to its reputation.
