You told me about your problems with Fish Oil, and said that you could take Cod Liver oil. Here is the opening from Wikipedia on it:

Cod liver oil is a nutritional supplement derived from liver of cod fish. It has high levels of the omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, and very high levels of vitamin A, and vitamin D. It is widely taken to ease the symptoms of arthritis as well as other health benefits. I

en.wikipedia.org

The main difference between fish oil and cod liver oil is that cod liver oil is high in vitamin D. The cod liver oil has the advantage of providing vitamin D, which is necessary for most of us in the United States in the cold months of winter, when we don't get very much sun exposure on our skin in order to make vitamin D.

Many people get confused about the difference between fish oil liquid and cod liver oil. You can consider cod liver oil as fish oil+. The 2 are the same except that cod liver oil contains natural vitamin D and A.

So check the amount of Omega-3's in your oil and make sure you take enough to get 1500mg of EPA/DHA a day if you don't have heart disease, 2000mg a day if you do.

And you get the bonus of all the vitamin D!
