I take six of the standard 180/120
capsuls a day. I also eat lots of
Tuna and a few omega 3 eggs a week.I am actually quite pleased, as mental
illness has been quite prominant in my
family for a few generations.
You can get Omega 3 from plant sources
as well, (like flax) but it is not EPA or
DHA it is something that the body can
convert to EPA and DHA. It is being proposed
that some individuals my have a hampared
ability to make this conversion, and thats
why taking EPA DHA (in fish oil) - which
goes directly to the brain without conversion -
helps some so much.I figure it will cose around $200 a year
for the fish oil. For the improvment I
am seeing I would be willing to pay much
more.Linkadge
