Any good doctor or nutritionist will tell you that the best way to get any nutrient is to eat a balanced diet. In the case of omega 3 oil, this would be in the form of fish.

The frustrating truth is that there will never be an easy quick-fix method of losing weight that is safe and simple.

Taking a fish oil supplement is a good idea for anyone wanting to make positive steps towards weight loss.
