I’m always amused when some obscure thing suddenly gets touted as the next superfood, some products that will cure all our health ills just by us eating more of it. Omega 3 fatty acids, found in fattier fish like salmon, have been in that category for some time, so much so that supplements just containing omega 3s are widely available now.

But not so fast, a new study says omega 3 supplement consumption could cause prostate cancer in men. Shocking news for anyone who has sworn by these in recent years.
