I never tolerated fish oil. the DHA and EPA in regular Fish oil are in "ethyl ester" form, Algae oil and special Fish oil in triglycerid form. That may be the reason. Algae oil is no problem for me to tolerate, but it is quite pricey. The Triglycerid form is supposed to be superior.

It may (seriously) deplete Vitamin E, which I think is responsible for my current crisis. Been on up to 10g EPA/DHA. I had a blast for a few months and lost some serious weight! I will have a Vitamin E test on tuesday and hope it will resolve. So you may have to supplement with E. The reason it depletes Vitamin E is because the body uses it to keep the Oil from getting rancid in the body.
