just wondering what dose of EPA you were taking. do you know that some studies showed an improvement with 1 gram but a worsening of symptoms with 2 or 4 grams?
i take 1.5 grams of a highly concentrated EPA supplement spread out thoughout the day. if i take any more than this or if i take it all together at once i get no effect whatsoever. interestingly at the start i could take 3 grams and get a really good effect but had to lower the dose over time to keep it working. taking too much seems to trigger something that is counterproductive. maybe you just need to lower your dose.> Hi Bleauberry.

Not only that, but my friend's cat would run away from me while I took fish oil. Now that I haven't taken fish oil in over a week, the cat and I are best buddies again. Cats are intriguing creatures.
