12. One thing I left out

Thu Feb 19, 2015, 11:52 AM

Feb 2015

I'v been taking 6 1000mg fish oil pills a day, 2 pills 3 times a day.

I take the ones that are mercury filtered. I do eat a lot of fish and recently had my mercury levels checked and they are normal.

Years ago I worked outside in the winter and at that time I started taking the fish oil. Everyone I worked with had dry and cracking skin on their hands. After taking the fish oil, mine never did. So, I'm sure it's good for dry skin. Also seems to make you very regular going to the bathroom.
