omega-3

518994 tn?1212242047 There are various vitamin-mineral supplements available that contain this or you could just add a little (~1/2 teaspoon) extra virgin olive oil to your dogs meals. Olive oil is a great source of Omega-3 Fatty acids. The omega-3's are the same for people and pets. If you give too much the result would be a bit of gas and/or loose stool.

Avatar n tn Also, Physillium Husk, in powder, added to the food can do wonders. It is a fiber product and it is safe to give it to the cats. When my cats get a little constipated I just add this and problem solved. Omega is primarily for skin and coat. My cats are given Omega every day yet they tend to get a bit constipated when I get lazy and don't give them physillium husk. But.....

612551 tn?1450022175 thanks for the info guys....I do use Krill Oil for one of my cats. I've only been giving him a full capsule once a week or so, guess it wouldn't hurt to give more. I just wasn't sure what to tell her abt the dog, now I will suggest 1 every couple days since this dog weighs much less than my cats...

Avatar f tn I take my prenatal pill one times a day. And It has everything I need But No omega 3 an I heard to take it 2nd or 3rd trimester. Just don't remember what was said.
Avatar f tn you know, I haven't been taking the Omega 3 since I got pregnant - they make me nauseous. I just take my prenatals daily. I try to eat healthy(doesn't always happen) but i do try. I didnt take any Omega 3 with my other kids and their fine, so oh well.
1655526 tn?1330655629 ve read in this forum that others have also had adverse reactions to taking this supplement. So I wanted to put this poll out to see how omega 3 affects you. The first time I suspected krill oil, which is supposed to be the best omega 3, I used the process of elimination. Still not believing it I did it a second and third time. Now I don't dare take it even after my ablation for SVT because I don't want the other arrythmias.
2001997 tn?1333888744 This combo is probably OK... Omega-3 and b complex are frequently used in addition to normal multivitamins but I'd ask the doctor again and make sure you get a straight answer, or call a pharmacist just to be sure..
688450 tn?1259468734 My sister was reading over the info on an box of her old prenatal vitamins CitraNatal DHA and it was stated that ingestion of more than 3 grams /(3,000 mgs) of omega-3 fatty acids per day has been shown to have potential antithrombotic effects, including an increased bleeding time and INR. Administration of omega-3 fatty acids should be avoided if on anticoagulants and in those known to have an inherited or acquired bleeding diathesis.
Avatar f tn Hey Bkitty! Well, that sure seems like a lot of food! My vet has told me that "normal" cats should weigh about 13-15 lbs! Most of my cats are overweight! My vet also told me not to allow the cats to free eat! Mine get about 1/2 cup of Iams weight control, indoor, hairball formula dry food a day! Plus, they each get 1, 3 oz can of fancy feast wet food! Plus about 5 kitty treats! I measure out the dry food carefully!
Avatar f tn The omega-3 fatty acids should be in your prenatal.
Avatar n tn and can you name the food i have to give to her?she has royal canin indoor 7 ,royal canin for cats after 12 years old(wet),fish from can,boiled chicken breast...and how about the omega 3,6,9 vitamins or selenium plus A,C,E CAUSE i bought her today...i have read that fight with cancer cells...have you heard about essiac tea?does he help ?
874521 tn?1424116797 PLEASE be aware that not all EFAs are absorbed equally by the body. Also a RATIO or BALANCE of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids give the optimum results. As well as the amount of the fatty acid ratio is beneficial -- ie giving extra or not giving enough doesn't work as well as the ideal amount in published research. And it takes an average of 6 weeks (4-12 week range) of giving the EFAs to see the results in the skin.
Avatar m tn hi, everybody I just lost my cat with lots of health issues, such as bad teeth, arthritis, liver dysfunction, kidney and the heart. I made a huge research on internet before and after his death and shortly I would say never feed your cat commercial or even worse dry food.
Avatar m tn Many studies are exposed everyday. My opinion is this : try to eat food which contain omega 3 such as sardines or salmon etc If it is difficult for you I would suggest omega 3 capsules but I would also suggest you to confirm this with your doctor because all capsules are not the same!
Avatar m tn Here is my situation. I have four cats. 2 siblings are almost 7 years old and the other 2 siblings are almost 4 years old. We all lived together peacefully in an apartment until I bought a house in June. For the first week I kept the 4 of them downstairs in the cat room I had made for them which has 4 litter boxes, 4 beds, some cardboard boxes and all of their food and water dishes. After the first week I let them explore one room at a time in the house.
Avatar n tn hi and welcome, hair loss d/t licking is usually an allergy to something environmental, food or to fleas this causes kitty to itch and to lick...but hair loss can be d/t many other problems. I will send you a link to read thru. I would suggest for starters to change kitty's litter to something with NO scent. to change his food preferably to a canned diet without grains. and to not use any cleaners in your home...such a bleach,mr clean etc. not even candles are they too have a strong scent...
Avatar m tn I am keen to balance out any hormone imbalance but i seem to have a sensitivity to omega 3, or perhaps is it iodine? Most of the literature online seems to suggest omega 3 will reduce inflammation, thereby helping reduce acne.

1608004 tn?1390770990 And, you can buy some salmon oil or omega 3 oil for cats and give her a half teaspoon a day in her food. This should really help a lot. I have done it myself and my cat looks great!
Avatar m tn 1%) in participants who consumedat least 250mg per day of omega-3 oil compared to participants who consumed less than 250 mg per day of omega-3 oil (P<0.0001) (4). Sudden cardiac death was defined as death within 5 minutes to 1 hour of symptom onset. There was no significant difference in the risk of a non-fatal myocardial infarction (heart attack) between participants who consumed equal to or greater than 250 mg per day of omega-3 oils and those who consumed less than 250 mg per day.
