Does anyone else feel nauseous after taking fish oil? I use Carlson liquid fish oil that's lemon flavored. I've also tried fish oil capsules and get nauseous from them too Any suggestions? TIA.:confused:

Sponsor derkin 11-10-2007, 08:06 PM I have tried the best of them that have fruit flavors and are suppose to have the fishy flavor out of them but I still get the nasty after taste and end up with nausea and give them away. I have heard flaxseed oil is just as good. I am trying that next! sunshine123 11-10-2007, 08:17 PM Are you going to take the oil or buy it in capsule form? I used to take the capsules that I bought at Trader Joe's and they didn't bother my digestion. Maybe I'll try them again. Good luck and let me know how you do with the flaxseed oil. drs 11-10-2007, 10:52 PM Have you tried it on an empty stomach, this way it goes into the digestive track faster and doesn't sit in the gut. sunshine123 11-11-2007, 01:23 AM No, I've never thought of that, but I'll give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion. jenniferc16 11-11-2007, 09:13 AM I take mine in the evening after dinner. Maybe you can try even later than that. osteopenia1 11-20-2007, 03:09 PM I have experienced some nausea from Carlson's liquid fish oil also. Try the enteric coated omega 3 fish oil, 1000 mg, Spring Valley brand from Wal-Mart. I take it after the evening meal with a whole glass of water and have no problem. These are soft gel capsules. I think the coating makes the difference. sunshine123 11-21-2007, 11:02 AM Thanks Osteo. I was looking for enteric coated caps. I'll head over to Walmart and get them. I appreciate the info. Happy Holidays. Sue cherokeewoman 11-24-2007, 02:42 PM Are you allergic to shellfish or any type of fresh water fish? After you try some of the other suggestions you may want to leave the fish oil alone. I know many who are not allergic to honey but bee pollen makes them very ill. sunshine123 11-24-2007, 07:09 PM No, I'm not allergic to fish or shellfish. I ordered the enteric coated capsules from *********** and will see if I can tolerate them. If I can't, then I'll just not try taking them anymore. Thanks for your input. storey7383 11-24-2007, 10:31 PM I did take the fish oil capsules and got nausea also. I was taking them with breakfast and had to change to bedtime. Didn't have any problem after that. Hope this helps. sunshine123 11-24-2007, 10:39 PM Thanks Storey. I have to take my vitamins & other pills after dinner. There are very few pills that I can take in the am. |
