fish oil

Hello... I was told that I should start taking fish oil. Can you ladies let me know how it may help and which one you are taking.

Re: fish oil

  • I take 2 tabs of Natures Bounty Oderless daily. Any other brand and my cat attacks the bottle. It also helps the s/e if you freeze the pills.

    It helps me lower my trigycerides levels, the amount of fat in your cells.

  • DH & I both take the "Naturol" brand Omega-3 from Wal-Mart (purple bottle).  I only take 1 capsule a day (I think the label says you can take up to 3) and in 6-wks my cholesterol dropped like 20-pts. 

    Omega-3s are used to lower cholesterol, as well as for general heart health.  I've been told that they can also help in people with depression, but I haven't noticed any difference in that area.

    DH tried the Nature Made fish oil & had problems with the smell/taste.  They gave him "fish burps" and they add lemon flavor or scent to help mask the fish, which makes them taste rather gross.

  • I take naturemaid Omega 3.  I only take 1 per day because I have a DHA capsule in my prenatal.  I don't recall why my RE wanted me to take it but she wanted me to take 1-2/day in addition to the DHA capsule.
