Hello, Thanks for the query. Fish oil capsules contain omega 3 fatty acids which are having multiple benefits. Following lines will explain "Two of the most important omega-3 fatty acids contained in fish oil are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA. Fish oil is FDA approved to lower triglycerides levels, but it is also used for many other conditions. It is most often used for conditions related to the heart and blood system" So the capsules can be used by him. But it is essential that he achieves a strict glucose control. Thanks.
