671251 tn?1236116671 It also said that flax seed and flax seed oil are high in Omega 3 fatty acids without the worry of mercury. Flax seed flour is good to add to foods in place of some of the flour. It has to be ground or crushed to be used by our bodies. Walnuts are another good source too. I found a good recipe for salmon cakes in Joy of Cooking. Here is the recipe I used.
657586 tn?1224587947 Fish is great brain food (Omega 3 essental fatty acid) for you and the baby and I would just make sure its cooked. I am avoiding raw despite pregnant women eating it in japan I am just being careful and having cooked fish once or twice a week.
Avatar n tn Eating highly fatty or oily meals or eating oilfish, escolar, rudderfish or orange roughy(commonly mislabeled as butterfish or codfish) can cause temporary oily diarrhea known as keriorrhoea. This is due to the unabsorbable wax esters contained in some foods. If it cannot be linked to a food source see old answer below: Kevin Pho, MD Male Boston - MA Member since Feb 2003 Dec 24, 2003 12:00AM Oily or floating stools (steatorrhea) suggests malabsorption or chronic pancreatitis.
Avatar f tn They say 12 oz of low mercury fish a week is fine. High Mercury fish include Grouper, Marlin, Orange Roughy, Tilefish, Swordfish, Shark, & King Mackerel. I eat shelled fish (Shrimp, Clams, Lobster, King Crab) a few times a week. No problems my last 2 pregnancies. You should be on, just let your Dr know what and how much you've been consuming.
Avatar f tn It is often sold under the wrong label (orange roughy, cod, sea bass, white tuna), so you may not know you have eaten it. This fish cannot process certain esters, so it stores large quantities and human consumers excrete them. I don't know why the rest of my family has had no problem...maybe they just don't notice their BMs. Also, I ate more of the fish than they did.
1117137 tn?1345227905 Well, I have realized that I have eaten a serving of orange roughy fish. It was at a family dinner and didn't know that this is one of the fishes to avoid during pregnancy. I'm sure one time won't hurt, but am kind of freaking out!
Avatar f tn it won't hurt you.
Avatar f tn avoid any cheese unpasteurized (brie, cambert, feta, etc...) limit your fish intake but still eat fish!! dont eat grouper, marlin, orange roughy, tilefish, swordfish, shark, or king mackerel. and make sure all of your meat is well cooked, not bloody. other than that just eat healthy...LOTS of whole grains, meat, veggies, and fruit.
Avatar m tn He treated me with Flagyl, a perscription anti-fungal medication. It did not help. My diet is high in Omega 3 oils and I supplement with Mega Red Omega 3 Krill oil almost every day. I believe there must be some commonality amongst all the orange tongue "victims" that link us together. Perhaps if we work together to focus on finding that cause we can get to the bottom of this mystery and figure out how it can be treated!
Avatar f tn My doc recommends a prenatal vitamin for everyone and omega 3 if u have less than 3 servings of fish each week.
Avatar m tn Yea as far as the tuna no I have not eaten any and the fish that I was talking about in my last post was the one that makes the orange oil in the bowl, which I have not eaten either. Thanks for the comments mama2sofi.
Avatar f tn I take one to fight babybrain. Omegas are stripped from myelin shealths during pregnancy and since they act as lubricant in the conduction of, essentially thoughts, our thought process is slowed. I didn't ask my doc about it yet but it does clear up fog in my brain.
1655526 tn?1330655629 On Omega-3 supplements, I notice a significant increase in PVCs as well as slight increase in general twitchiness or anxiety. Yeah, it's a sample size of one and I'm the only observer, but that's the way it seems to me. However, some scientists have observed problems in giving patients these supplements: http://www.examiner.
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.
Avatar m tn I took an Omega-3 supplement for the first time before going to bed last night, and when I woke up one eye was very swollen and puffy. The only allergies I have had are seasonal. Could I be allergic to the Omega-3 supplement?
Avatar f tn The fish you should completely avoid are Marlin, Orange roughy, tilefish, Swordfish, Shark, king Mackerel, and Tuna ( bigeye, Ahi).
Avatar m tn Plus the environment where you grew up in and the food you eat is also important. Lowered omega 3 intake (from oily fish) and increased omega 6 intake (animal products, maragarine, meat - beef, pork and chicken) may also contribute. Having lowered exposure to parasites and infections as a young child and even possibly in the pregnant mother may also increase risk of asthma and atopy.
1976414 tn?1326171323 Husband taking Udos's oil (similiar to flax - a 3-6-9 Omega) and has been successful. I think the answer is yes, as long as you've got 20 g of fat in there.
Avatar m tn Higher concentrations of EPA and DHA, the active components in omega-3s, can also be found in LOVAZA — the first and only prescription omega-3 medication. It is important to know that some types of fish may contain mercury and other pollutants from the environment. Therefore, the American Heart Association (AHA) cautions that some people should limit the amount of certain types of fish they eat.
