A few months ago, I had a test which compares the omega 6s & 3s in my blood. The healthy ratio is about 2 to 1. (Average American is 11-1, while mine was nearly 15-1.) Since taking the fish oil, however, it seems I feel worse, physically and menally: strange aches and soreness, stomach cramps, mild headaches, fasciculations, mood swings, irritability . . . basically the opposite of what they say this stuff is supposed to do. Is this normal? Or is this just a breaking-in thing? (I don't take any medications.) They say this stuff reduces inflammation. Isn't that supposed to ease soreness? Is it possible I can be having an adverse reaction to reduced inflammation? (I say that because on the few occasions when I took over the counter anti-inflammation pills -- this was long before I took the supplements -- I had the worse muscle stiffness and soreness that I'd ever had in my life!!! (After riding my bicycle 30 miles, I felt like I rode 3,000 miles non-stop!!)

I'd stop taking it right away. Your body might be telling you something.
Most people have no adverse reaction to this product but your appears to have had some negetive reaction.

Was the Omega 3's that you were taken screened for toxins? It will say it on the bottle if it was. If it doesn't say it, then that MAY be a reason why you are having a problem. Always avoid omega's that do not say they were screened.
