    Hi
    I take PuraEPA daily in an attempt to reduce mood swings and anxiety.
    I take a high dose and although I've been on in a month this time round, I've had pleasant experiences previously.

    I think a high grade oil is best as lower grade/cheaper ones just seem to smell!

    It helps my skin and hair too.

    I get mine from mind1st.com - not cheap but as I say, I think it works.
    I've recently ditched medication and started this again.

    So far, so good.

    I hope you get some more answers to this.

    I don't think I've ever heard of any risks to taking fish oil (unless for some reason you have an allergy or condition, and/or your doctor recommends against it).

    I took it for a while then stopped, mostly because I'd forget to take it.

    Some of them smell or taste weird, so find one that works for you. My friend took one before a work out and nearly puked because she burped and the taste came back up. So just a warning, that could happen.

    Fish oil supplements are not something you really 'feel' working.

    However they are one of the few supplements which has the backing of science,most people have a diet too high in omega 6 and too low in omega 3.

    They are a good idea for most people IMO.
