In reply to Omega 3 fatty acid- Use Nature's Way Fisoil, posted by 3 Beer Effect on February 7, 2002, at 23:28:47
Does anyone know where I can find this brand of Omega-3? I checked the internet, GNC, and another vitamin store, no luck.
Thanks!

The Nature's Way Fisoil pills completely avoid this problem because they are enteric coated & not absorbed until they reach the small intestine (which supposedly results in superior absorption & lower effective dosages). Also, they have no odor which is good because I hate fish & never eat it. I have noticed no side effects except for some slight nausea, but that is alleviated by drinking a full glass of ice water. As with most supplements & amino acids it is often impossible to tell if they are working or not, but the research says that Fisoil/Omega 3 Fatty acid supplementation is not only good for bipolar & unipolar depression but also good for you health (cardiovascular).
