Hi Gbill7. Apologies for my late reply. For some reason your most unspam-like response went to my spam box! Wow, that's an incredible story and very humbling! I took a lot of supplements during the Covid nonsense, and despite a weak chest, never felt better. However, I've never taken Omega 3 fish oils. That's probably because of personal bias. I work in special ed and I've heard a lot of talk of them being a miracle cure for ADHD, etc. There are many "miracle cures" in my line of work, and most of them are money-making frauds, so I probably instinctively put O3FO in that category. However, I will DEFINITELY give them a try now. Despite my "defence" of anti-deps, I'd really rather not be on them! Many thanks for your very moving personal story and may your good physical and mental health continue!

Thank you!

Yeah, nutrition is actually highly individualistic. Different supplements work for different people, depending on your personal nutritional deficiencies, your toxicities, genes, microbiome, etc. Our bodies evolved to function best when a zillion things are ‘in balance’, so we just need to try different strategies until we improve. In the long term, natural tactics almost always work better than short-term, artificially-created products. Of course, good sleep, low stress, exercise, healthy relationships, and so on are very important parts of the equation. Every little healthy thing you can do helps, so keep taking those small steps to a better life. Best wishes to you, Steghorn21!
