I recently found out that I have ocular rosacea and my doctor recommended I start taking fish oil and flaxseed oil supplements to deal with my rosacea and eye dryness. The weird part is, and I've only been taking them for about 5 days (2000mg of fish oil and 1200 mg of flaxseed oil, both twice daily) I have NOT been hungry!

I used to eat enough food for a family of four and the other day I couldn't even finish my breakfast AND I SKIPPED lunch! I cannot even tell you the last time I skipped a meal, because I don't think it's ever happened! I'm not snacking between meals either. I feel like I've stumbled upon the diet world's best kept secret! My sister started taking them today as well due to my ravings so I'm interested to see if she's affected like this. Has anyone experienced this when taking these supplements?
