Did you bookmark those websites? I did some quick and dirty searches and found fish oil is recommended to *prevent* fibrillation. Supposedly. Right now fish oil is reputed to do everything but bring raise the dead.

This is what I think. (The operative word is "think", as in wild speculation, taking a guess, whatever.)

1) You may not have experienced atrial fibrillation. It could have been something that felt like it, but wasn't really. I am "not" saying "it's all in your head". I'm saying you should have it confirmed.

2) The fish oil-fibrillation association could be coincidence. It could be caused by something else entirely, maybe something you took or did at the same time.

3) It could be the combination of fish oil and something else.

4) It could be a contaminant.
