What is best brand of fish oil?

[ktdommer]

My son's Cunningham panel showed probable PANS. He is starting vit. E, K2 fish oil and Enhansa. Is is on a full treatment for Lyme, bart and babs along with viruses.

What brand of fish oil is best? Need a good price and odorless. Small potent capsules would be best. Barely room for regular size fish oil in his med trays.

Thanks!

Dr Murphy at USF recommends omega 3 with primarily EPA (vs. DHA)...

NO omega 6 or 9.

 

We have used Nordic Naturals EPA-Extra, which you can get at Whole Foods. None of it is inexpensive!

All the best to you--

We like Barleans Brand Organic Ultra DHA. They are fairly small and lemon flavored so there is no fishy after taste. Each of our ds' s take 2000 mg daily.

We use Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega. Not small. Another to try is Carlsons. Their liquid flavored fish oils taste good. They make good capsules too.

Try OmegaBrite. 7:1 ratio of EPA to DHA. Not cheap but the pills are small. (There are three of them.)

Krill oil is supposed to be more bioavailable.

 

Unfortunately I have found out that, after increasing fish oil recently from 3x weekly cod liver oil to a 1x daily fish oil, that it makes DD's motor tics worse!

We use Krill Oil as well.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback. I know the brands vary so much. Small gel cap would be best.
