2. Bleeding
Bleeding gums and nosebleeds are two of the hallmark side effects of excess fish oil consumption. One study in 156 adolescents showed that taking fish oil may be linked to a higher risk of nosebleeds, reporting that 112 of them taking 4 grams of fish oil daily experienced nosebleeds as a side effect. For this reason, it's often advised to stop taking fish oil prior to surgery and to talk to your doctor before taking supplements if you're on blood thinners like Warfarin.
