This is their objectivity claim: "True to this objective, DTB has always been wholly independent of the pharmaceutical industry, Government and regulatory authorities. We are also free of advertising and every other form of commercial sponsorship."
Hmm... I dunno. Omega 3s (in the form of high quality brand - cannot remember which anymore - 6,000 mgs fish oil/day) did not work for me as monotherapy for MDD/BPII (?) - in fact it was a pretty terrible experience, and my pdoc thought I was crazy for even trying. But I do think as a supplement for my existing regimen, it has been a little effective. I have heard from friends that it has helped them quite a bit, and that they usually only notice the extent upon terminating its use.
On Remedyfind, fish oil is rated higher than many pharmaceuticals by individuals, although it might be that the expectations and the side effect profiles are lower.
