> i can't seem to handle 1 g (1 geltab) of fish oil per day. any more seems to screw with my sleep, dreams and make me a bit manic. the only stable dosage pattern i've found is 1g every other day. i've been taking fish oil for about a year now and do notice positive results.

> anyone else have this problem? or do i just have to force 1g a day on myself until my body adjusts?After a year, I doubt your body will adjust. Your experience has been reported by others, but I don't know what explains it, or if there's anything to be done about it.
I know of one person who goes manic on fish oil, but does fine on flax oil.
> i don't see why all dosages are 1g/day minimum if there were people out there who couldn't handle it.

> note: i never ate fish foods, in my life, except for a bite here and there.I don't think it's about exposure to fish. I think it's about gene regulation.
