What, exactly, should you notice in your health and appearance after taking these supplements (Fish Oil (Omega 3) capsules and Vitamin E capsules) daily? I have been on a regime for at least 3 months now. I don't see any changes. I guess I expected glowing skin and thicker hair!

I think they make my hair grow faster. I mainly take them for depression issues - and they do help. I just heard a guest dr on Dr. Phil yesterday say that taking fish oil was very good for your skin for keeping it young. It may be one of those things you don't notice immediate results with but that pays off in the long run! They are also supposed to be good for your heart & circulation & definitely your brain as it is mostly fat.

4 me, I think it's the Omega-3 oils, my brusitis, is not bothering me. :bouncing: :bouncing: Also, I'm not as depressed. More positive thinking. And yes, I believe my skin and hair is benefiting from the Vit E and the Omega-3 oils.

Omega 3 has helped my asthma. Less inflammation. But I think the liquid works better than the capsules. It doesn't taste bad either. You should get carlson's fish oil with lemon taste. Refrigerate and use within 3 months.

For health benefits, the recommended dosage I take is at least 600 mg of combined DHA & EPA (this is listed separately on the label). I take two 1200 mg softgels to get this amount. So, one softgel has 1200mg fish oil of which 216mg is EPA and 144mg is DHA. Amounts will vary with each brand - read the label.

I just take it for my heart as prescribed by my Cardiologist. I didn't know it did anything else??
