Flaxseed oil instead of Fish oil??

Posted by spriggy on April 29, 2007, at 20:58:07

I can't take Fish oil; I've tried 2 liquid forms, and 3 pill forms- EVERY single time I take it, I come up with horrific cystic acne (which I never have- well.. until I take fish oil; which is supposed to do WONDERS for the skin. Go figure!).
Anyway, so, I figured I'd instead try the Flaxseed oil. I haven't gotten any acne problems from it; I really do think it has helped my joint pain ( not signficantly) but enough to notice- also seems to be helping my allergies ( or it could be the Claritin-D I take daily.. ROFL; or the 3000 mg's of Vitamin C).
Regardless, I think I had a question when I started writing...
Hmmm........... (blonde moment).

OH yeah.. will the Flaxseed oil give me all the magical benefits (snarl) as the Fish oil???
DHA and all the other three letter healthy initials?
Thanks!
