Rancid Oils Are Not Fresh
Fish oil supplements that come back up on you are often spoiled, or rancid. While spoilage does not necessarily indicate lower amounts of omega-3s, it does indicate that the oils have gone from being healthful to being potentially harmful. Rancid, spoiled oils contain oxidized fats, called lipid peroxides. The measurement of rancidity/spoilage is called the TOTOX value, meaning Total Oxidative value, and evaluates the content of peroxides. Rancid oils have high TOTOX values and high amounts of lipid peroxides. These oxidized fats (peroxides) start free radical cascades (the pathways of aging and disease) that can damage the fat-containing membranes of your cells. They also deplete your body’s stores of antioxidants, because this is how your body tries to defend itself from the free radicals.
