I went to a nutritionist to try and deal with my anxiety and depression through natural means. She told me to take 4 per day, 2 in the am and 2 in the pm. I also don't like fish but eat eggs every day with the omega fats in them.

4 a day at what mgs?

I would say this would have to be based on what mg you purchased. I take 1000 mg of Omega-3 (Which is actually 3, 6, and 9) along with an evening primrose 1000 mg. Good luck.

I take two a day. One in the morning and one in the evening. 1000mg a pill

Wow! I've been taking it for some time to treat my cholesterol, but had no idea it helps with anxiety, too.

Thanks to all of you. My goal is to get off medication altogether (except Prevacid) and replace them with supplements.

Hey guys-
I started taking Omega 3's, B Complex and 1000 of C about 3 weeks ago. I have been doing MUCH better. It could be other factors, (breathing, CBT, no sugars & change in my thyroid med) but there is a difference. I will add primrose tonight. :)

Honestly, you can't take too much omega-3,it is great for your heart HDL and as you mentioned anxiety and depression. A high dosage however can give you a little gas. I take 3 in the morning and 2 at night. Flaxseed is also very good.

FREEZE IT, or you'll get funky fishy burps.

FindTheFish~I have to laugh at your reply that you've been taking it for sometime for something other than anxiety and didn't KNOW it works for anxiety.
Well, how's your anxiety?
I'd say if it's still there, it DOESN'T work for it. :)
I've been taking it for over 6 months because of it's claimed and it hasn't touched my anxiety at ALL!
(But then again, 13 meds 6 years ago, didn't help either? :(

Fishy burps%@?&. That's gross. If that happens, I'll likely have nausea problems as well.

I've been taking 2 capsules a day along with 1 capsule of evening primrose oil since last August and I find it has helped my anxiety level. Other things have helped as well so it's difficult to say whether fish oil alone is sufficient for decreasing anxiety levels. It can't hurt so why not try it?

You're absolutely correct. If there is a chance it will help and there is no harm, why not?
Thanks,
Sandi

I take them and don't get "fishy burps." They're liquid capsules too.

There has been a great deal of research that shows that omega-3 and flaxseed contribute to better all around health period.

Hi everyone!!!!
