Hi, Noa, good to see you. I hope your travels have included some fun!
I have a question about EPA vs DHA in fish oil. I *thought* I did research on this issue a while back (well, I know I did the research...just somehow evidently reached to wrong conclusion). I thought it was the DHA that helped with depression, and I have a huge bottle of Carlson's Super DHA now, and then a while ago found out that it is apparently the EPA that helps with depression.
Is that your understanding also? After I bought the DHA I read somewhere that it can even increase depression, except that it seems to help bipolar dx's.
Any comments?
Shar
