I've looked over the Eaton articles (and they don't agree with what I know about paleontology/paleoclimatology, but what do I know?), a Finnish study published on Medscape, press about the APA's stance on this matter, and an article about the original 1999 Stoll study -- a study which included approximately 30-40 subjects, split into two groups, both of which kept taking their usual medication regimen. One group received the omega-3 fish oil treatment (I believe) and the other took olive oil.
There are a lot of variables there and I'm not sure what to think. Maybe there is a lot of anecdotal evidence about the efficacy of this treatment, but is there strong scientific evidence that it works and is safe?
OK, OK ... I'm not a scientist, so I'll just stay out of this discussion from now on ... I hope this is not taken as incivility and that it is OK within this forum to not agree all the time.
