Avatar m tn I have read a number of threads which are saying that fish oil with high levels of EPA and DHA can help to reverse liver fibrosis if there is no further liver injury occuring. Is this correct? I have found locally a fish oil liquid that has 968 mg of EPA and 878 mg of DHA per 10ml serving. Would this be enough because it recommends only 10 ml per day? By the way it also states on the box that a) it is made to Pharma GMP standards and b) it uses opti-pure purification process.
Avatar n tn I answered on your other post, but do want to say none of the brands you're taking are the best quality. You want fish oil sourced from clean fish. Buying bargain brands can be problematic with supplements.
1756970 tn?1314376733 EPA is found in the fish oil, it helps with mood and brain function. DHA is less needed but is still good for the brain. I think 3000mg of EPA is a good amount but you will need to ask your doctor or professional for the amount. I don't think you can ever have to much.

Omocor comes next year, (3) Given my above cholesterol and triglyceride figures and regimen, is there any evidence that taking niacin would be better than the fish oil alone I am taking? It seems already to be in a good range.

Avatar m tn The front of the bottle just tells you the combined mg of EPA and DHA. I believe it helped me. I was also exercising alot. I eventually had a downfall after a bad breakup and all of that went down the drain. Now I am back on Celexa. I couldn't shake it by myself.
