I think Mercola is a quack, too. But you shouldn't count out Omega 3s for others just because they didn't work for you.
Studies have shown it's an effective augmentation to ADs and that it helps elevate the mood. And people swear by it. And no one, to my knowledge, has argued that fish oil isn't good for the heart. (I take a small dose every day, and I haven't noticed much of a difference past the first week, but, as I said, it's a small dose.)
For most people, this is a remedy that can't hurt. Let's not dash their hopes.
Shoot, even snake oil has its benefits, even if it's a placebo.
