This is not only to calm neuroticism engendered by a lack of medical perspective: it also serves to protect hard-core brain dopers and empower the elderly.
I often want to take an omega-3 capsule but am concerned how such will affect my immunocompetence1 and risk of hemorrhagic stroke2. While such fatty acids' effects on immune expression is knowable by timed assays, their general effect on blood viscosity also is mathematically deducable.
Consideration of this not only requires their total peak effects but also their durational significant effect: they, although natural nutrients, inhibit homeostatic mechanisms. Anti-coagulation ought not result in significantly thinner blood by the time of the next dose; dampening of immunity oughtn't change the course of an infection.
