Have a look at my web site at www.omega3.20megsfree.com for some suggestions regarding dosage.

> at the moment summertime..I just take two at night pre-sleep and one with every proper meal usually at night..but I'll just be slightly dull if I don't take them with food in the day..not ill..

> Don't stop AD's and switch due to my influence please...omega 3 along with red meat can help Ad's work even better..so you could take less..

> The only line between all the chemicals seems to be one of medical responsibility and vested interest. I mean I might get a bit heavy about how prescribed drugs get the number one say and thats sort of political I suppose..but I'm just as glad to have prozac and effexor and buspar and nitrazepam, clopizone, losec etc etc when I need them....those drugs are absolutely specific and its lucky we have them....

> Personally I find AD's too heavy on my guts, for regular use and I just found out its because our stomach has its own "brain" with 100 million neurons operating as an almost independent system (you can cut the nerve from stomach to brain and the stomach will still produce the same transmitters serotonin etc independant of the brain)...maybe an alternative delivery method would stop all the side effects ..
