nutsy,

You keep pointing to the fact that no omega 3 study exists to show reduction in cve's and that is why it cannot be approved.

However, studies do exist for fibrates and niacin to show they do not prevent cve's yet the FDA allows them to be prescribed.

Nuts - I think jking and I are on roughly the same page. Bottom line is the FDA is essentially saying that TG levels from 200-500 don't present a health risk. AHA and others are saying they do. Who is correct??? (Forget the specific focus on CVD risk reduction).
