flax-seed

460830 tn?1347219306 MY QUESTION IS, DO I NEED TO DISCONTINUE MY FISH OIL CAPSULES AND/OR FLAXSEED OIL CAPSULES? IF SO, WHEN?
Avatar f tn 20mls is equivilent to about 1.5 tablespoons of flaxseed oil per day, or 20 capsules of fish oil that is 1000 milligrams in strenghth. The difference with Swank and OMS is in the latest research. Either diet will work.
Avatar f tn I took DIM and fish oil and flaxseed oil to help regulate my hormones I got pregnant pretty soon after taking them
550622 tn?1247656720 The redness usually goes away, but the dry eye might stay around awhile. I take flaxseed oil everyday which helps as well as staying well hydrated- but eye drops are a way of life. It does get better, my eyes function almost normally but wearing contacts is very hard and my eyes are usually more dry the next day and flying doesn't help matters, so I use more drops during flights.
Avatar f tn Hello and thanks for this service! Is it more beneficial to take an "omega 3 EPA & DHA fish oil supplement" or an "omega 3, 6 &9 EPA & DHA fish oil supplement"? I'm a bit confused as to which would be of the optimum benefit to purchase. Thanks for your time and expertise!
Avatar n tn fish oil (if not allergic to it) flaxseed oil....evening primrose oil...take 1 or 2 capsules a day...It can be either Omega 3..6..or 9 all the Omegas work well i have found... Worth a try...and remember i takes a while to start working....Good Luck....
Avatar f tn I missed perimenopause, I guess, because I had a hysterectomy at age 34 for severe endometriosis. You might try drinking vanilla soymilk, maybe put it in your cereal, as I did. It has natural estrogen like effects. You might try natural sources of omega fatty acids for mood, like freshwater fish, such as salmon and tuna, walnuts and macadamia nuts, pumpkin seeds, and flaxseed. You might try flaxseed or if you aren't troubled by the fishy aftertaste, enteric coated fish oil capsules.
Avatar n tn Also, flaxseed oil or enteric coated fish oil capsules have omega fatty acids that are good for inflammation. I take the flaxseed oil capsules, 1000 mg morning and mid-day for my own osteoarthritis in my jaws as well as for mood. Certain foods are rich in omega fatty acids as well, like macadamia and walnuts, pumpkin seeds and freshwater fish, such as salmon and tuna. And Ester-C (gentler on the stomach than plain vitamin C) can help with circulation to the area.
Avatar f tn s brain development? I was told that ground flaxseed is best but other literature says that fish oil is better as it has the DHA property. Any advice???
Avatar m tn Loaded with alpha-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that helps reduce inflammation, flaxseed has been used for centuries for medicinal and health reasons. Gandhi proclaimed, "Wherever flaxseed becomes a regular food item among the people, there will be better health." The seed itself has terrific nutritional value, very usable protein, tremendous fatty acids, and minerals like magnesium, potassium, and zinc. Additionally, they're a great source of fiber.
Avatar n tn Has anyone used flaxseed oil for the 20g's of fat. I thought if I mixed it with a fruit smoothy it would be tolerable and I also found a flavored flaxseed oil but that was pretty expensive. I want to try to use the "good" fat for protease inhibitor. This anti-depressant already has me eating like crazy. I start this Friday Yikes!!
Avatar f tn fish oil, flaxseed, gelsemium, and Vitamin E. Eat fish three times a week and take cod liver oil capsules, too. Gelsimium "Some people respond very well to the remedy and, in rare cases, become symptom free. It can be helpful for the neurological changes such as blurred or double vision and loss of balance.
Avatar f tn Probably two separate things. Try oral flaxseed oil 1000mg twice a day and warm compresses to eyelids twice a day to help with tear imbalance. Also consider TheraTears Nutritional Capsules instead of flaxseed oil.
Avatar f tn Try flaxseed oil capsules...very inexpensive and work great...i take 1 or sometimes 2 per day and it helps the dry eyes a lot...give it some time for it to build up in your system...like a week or two...doesn't give instant results...
7584600 tn?1392261434 I HAVE read so many conflicting things..Is flaxseed oil bad for the liver or not!
Avatar f tn Hi, I take flaxseed oil. I was taking it for the benefits to the heart. Haven't heard about benefits to panic attack sufferers. Would like to learn more though.
212350 tn?1376428115 According to research, EPO helps to produce more EWCM during your fertile period. But it can cause uterine contractions in pregnancy too. Best time to take EPO is before ovulation (the start of your af til ovulation). Once ovulation is over, you can take flaxseed oil or fish oil. That's what I have been doing. EPO before and during ovulation and fish oil after ovulation until period arrives. Hope this helps...good luck in ttc.
Avatar f tn I would listen to your cardiologist or internal medicine doctor if they are very familiar with this situation. Omega 3 fish oil and flaxseed oil can both sometimes increase bleeding in patients taking blood thinners like coumadin (warfarin), apirin, and plavix. In diabetics on glucose lowering drugs there is some evidence that suggest that flaxseed oil may increase fasting blood sugar levels.
Avatar f tn Hi I did 5 rounds of clomid up to 150mg without any mature follicles and yes it gave me a thin lining too. I have had a much better response to injectables but you are having a response to clomid so I personally don't think injections would be a good idea either. However you should ask to be switched to femara it's a pill like clomid but does not thin your lining. Try taking some flaxseed oil also as it will help build your lining back up.
Avatar f tn I asked my doctor (RE) about taking 81 mg of baby aspirin to encourage blood flow to the uterus but she said the effects are not proven and therefore she does not use it in her practice. I'd still like to try it, however..particularly because my menses was especially "clotty" this month (sorry tmi!). But I also take flaxseed oil and I want to make sure that taking both of these won't be an issue. I'm on my 4th round of clomid 100 mgs, days 3-7 with progesterone supps.
