I tried and tried to take them. When I take them I am more mentally

alert and I feel like I can conquer the world. BUT... the heartburn

was a killer. I finally gave up. I had been taking the Nordic

Naturals brand. Recently I tried an enteric coated version (different

brand) and I had some of the same response (without the heartburn) but

not as much. I tried everything to combat the lemony heartburn of the

NN's with no luck. Drat!

Janel,

Our entire family of 6 takes them, and only my husband and our 11 year

old son have this same problem when they take the capsules at night.

When they take them in the morning, they do not have this problem.

Try taking them in the mornings for a while.

I've been taking 2 Omega 3 6 9s, 1 EPA and 1 400 vit E (same dose I

give my 2 1/2 year old for oh, maybe a month now, plus a multi-

vitamin. I haven't had any digestive issues or stomach aches, nor have

I really noticed any positive effects such as improved concentration or

reduced KP, which I was kind of curious about. The only thing I've

noticed in fact is that my nails seem stronger and don't peel like they

used to, which may or may not have anything to do with the

supplements. Have you tried taking your fish oils with food? I always

do, and I drink a full glass of water with them. That might help.

Were the pills old or left out in the heat or something? The pills can

go rancid too - just more stable than the liquid.

Hi Janel,

My entire family and most of every living person I know is on fish oil

and I've never heard of anyone having stomach aches from it.

What time of day do you take it and have you switched times?

Can you

try switching brands or taking it with different foods? If you burp

for example that's a sign that the oil is probably rancid. It doesn't

make sense that all was fine and then the stomach ache started -was

the oil left out in the sun? Also we don't take cod liver oil in my

family -just the ProEFA and ProEPA (and Glenn and I take the ProEPA

extra) If you mix ProEFA and cod liver oil you are changing the

formula -and raising the DHA not the EPA -and adding vitamin A to the

mix which you have to be careful about high dosages with.

(not saying you are using both -but quickly read someone is)

For me on just one ProEFA a day I immediately found an increase in

memory, focus. I never go into a room anymore and forget why I'm in

there. If that sounds familiar take fish oil for a week and let us

know. To me it's the only supplement I take where I actually know if

I forget to take it (because I forget!) I take about 3 or 4 capsules

a day now.

Below is an archive where I joke around why my husband Glenn needs to

take fish oil for some minor eczema reason from 2004...well in 2006 he

had a heart attack...and lived. His cardiologist Dr. Gage who is a

self proclaimed number one fish oil fan says that if he didn't know

Glenn had a heart attack he would never know -he is doing that well

and has no sign of damage from the heart attack. Coincidence? I'm

not feeling that lucky and am thankful that Glenn was on fish oil for

years. I know the stats say that there is a 70% decrease in fatal

heart attacks for those on fish oil -and am glad that Glenn supports

those stats. And Glenn is only in his early 40s!!! My father and

Glenn's father both died young of heart attacks...if I regret anything

it's the lack of knowledge and the ignorance towards the importance of

fish oil except for children years ago. Ironic isn't it that years

ago the awareness was for children and not for adults and today the

awareness is for adults -and savvy professionals and parents for

children.

Janel,

I started taking 2 ProEFA (Omega 3-6-9) a day for a few months BEFORE

I gave them to Max. I had gas/loose stools for the 1st week or so but

since then have had no problems with them. I guess it has been about

9 months or so that I've been taking them.

For several years, I've had a problem of my extremities falling asleep

when I put them in an awkward position. For example, sitting in an

office chair in the same position would put a foot to sleep or rolling

over on an arm while sleeping would put it to sleep. I know this

isn't unusual occasionally, but this would happen all the time. As

soon as I changed position, the feeling would come back so I wasn't

too worried about it. Anyway, within 6 weeks of starting the ProEFA,

this STOPPED. I didn't think much of it until I ran out for a few

weeks and it started happening again. I started the ProEFA back and

it went away again. Since these supplements are also good for the

heart etc and I don't eat fish, I figure I'm a lifetime taker of this

stuff.

(Max's Mom Age 2.6, suspected oral/verbal apraxia)

Hi Janel,

Since I read about all the benefits of the Omega 3, 6 and 9, my entire

family started taking it. I have an older son (7) who is not Apraxic

but had very bad eczema and I had tried a lot of things that did not

work, well guess what, Pro Efa did! My son has been eczema free for

months now, I also noted that my need for sweets has decreased and

dandruff disapeared... I have had problems with stomach aches too, in

the past, I found a brand at welgreeens called Century 21, the pill is

enteric coated which helps with that, but I have not been seeing it

lately, so I always try to take mine with a meal (right after lunch or

dinner), and I drink lots of water with it, it seems to help.

Good luck!

Janel,

I take the same NN omega 3,6,9 that my daughter does. I take 2 pills

per day. I've been taking it for a year or so. (LOL I actually

ordered my daughter the NN ProEFA online and when I got it I realized

it was the same thing I already had with just a different name.) I've

never had any problems with it. I see a lot of recommendations for

adults to take fish oils. It's recommended during pregnancy and

breastfeeding. It's also recommended to help fight heart disease and

to improve brain function. I've never noticed feeling any different

since taking it, but I think it's a good idea since I don't eat any fish.

Gosh that might be it, I used to take them with a small snack...then

I stopped my snack and was just taking the pill I wonder if that's

why my stomach gets upset. I'll have to try them again but with

breakfast to see if anything changes, I'm gonna wait another week or

so before I try again. And my old bottle ran out so I bought a new

one but a different brand (cheaper).

Just be careful, because if you get your oils from an unreputable

source, they may be rancid, which diminishes effectiveness and could

make you feel ill. If the oils smell fishy or if you taste or burp

fishiness after taking, that's a red flag.

Thanks I will be aware now when I start taking it again to make sure

it didn't go bad. Maybe that's what happened in combo with me taking

it before bed on a empty stomache. I'm gonna wait till next weekend

and try to take it again but with breakfast.

I bought a cheaper brand this time so hopefully it will turn out

ok...it's the NOW brand from whole foods. They were all out of the

NN.

I know I saw almost instant results to my skin and hair and my

menstral cycles. I actually for the 1st time in a long time had a

normal 28 day menstral cycle,actually 2 of them while I was taking

them.(This is unusual for me my body is very irregular). I'm looking

forward to starting them up again next weekend, eventhough I've only

been off them for a week now.

thanks for your help.

I know I saw almost instant results to my skin and hair and my

menstral cycles. I actually for the 1st time in a long time had a

normal 28 day menstral cycle,actually 2 of them while I was taking

them.(This is unusual for me my body is very irregular). I'm looking

forward to starting them up again next weekend, eventhough I've only

been off them for a week now.

thanks for your help.

I take Fish oil at night Janel with no trouble but my son has to

take it in the a.m. I know I did have a " digestion adjustment " time

but there was no pain involved. I would try taking them in the a.m.

when you feel up to trying them again. JMO!
