Hi, p-bot.
> But I'd be wary of the fish oil too (as you already seem to be).
Because of vitamin A toxicity, you mean?
> Switching to a fish-oil brand that's either mostly DHA or mostly EPA might help you. They seem to have differing effects in the brain.
In Servan-Schreiber's book "Instinct to Heal" (which I seem to mention no matter what the thread is about, lol), he says DHA supplement has been found to NOT help depression, whereas EPA or a less-DHA/more-EPA mix does. I had tried veggie DHA before without success.
I could try flaxseed EPA, but it has some drawback, too. Too sleepy to think what it is.
