Abstract: Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins A and D, and bioactive substances that support general health and disease prevention are among the many vital nutrients found in abundance in fish liver oil. Omega-3 fatty acids\\\' anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective qualities assist lower blood pressure, enhance lipid profiles, and minimise the risk of cardiovascular illnesses. Vitamin A supports vision, immune function, and skin health, while vitamin D plays a crucial role in bone mineralization and calcium homeostasis. Additionally, fish liver oil has shown potential in enhancing cognitive function, alleviating symptoms of arthritis, and promoting overall well-being. An overview of the scientific evidence supporting the health benefits of fish liver oil is provided in this review, with a focus on its role in nutrition and preventive healthcare. Though it has many health benefits, excessive consumption can cause hypervitaminosis A and other negative effects, which emphasises the need for appropriate dosage recommendations.
