A new study says although most labels that sell the supplements claim heart health benefits, they lack scientific evidence to prove the efficacy.Researchers from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center examined more than 2,800 fish oil supplements sold in the market. They found that the levels of two crucial components of fish oil supplements \u2013 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) \u2013 vary between products.The study evaluated two types of claims made in connection with heart health: Qualified health claims and structure\/function claims.Qualified health claims are benefits in connection with the treatment or prevention of the disease.
