    TLDR Fish oil is popular for improving skin and hair health and has therapeutic benefits.
    Fish oil, extracted from oily fish like mackerel, salmon, and sardines, is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which offer numerous health benefits. It has gained significant attention in the cosmetic and therapy industries for its potential to enhance skin health, promote hair growth, and provide therapeutic effects for various conditions. Consequently, fish oil has become a popular ingredient in cosmetic products and a focus of interest for therapeutic applications.
