Question 1

My child is allergic to fish, is there an alternative for the omega 3?

Accepted Answer

Fish contain many different molecules other than omega-3 fatty acids that can cause allergies. Remember, our own cells are made up from the identical omega-3 fatty acids found in fish. Using highly purified fish oils such as Nordic Naturals will often allow those who are sensitive to fish tolerate the omega-3 supplementation. Alternatively, using an algae-based omega-3 supplement would avoid the fish reaction.
