Yes, omega-3 fatty acids can increase the risk of bleeding, particularly in high doses. They may have a blood-thinning effect by reducing platelet aggregation, which can be beneficial for heart health but may pose risks for individuals on anticoagulant medications or those with bleeding disorders. It's important for individuals considering omega-3 supplements, especially in higher amounts, to consult with a healthcare provider to assess their specific risks.
