Hi gilbert,
Nope, cos the vitmins in my package has all the nutrients needed like folic acid, vitamins and iron. He says that one single pill per day is more than enough, too much will have constipation. |

Hi everyone,
No doubt omega-3 fish oils are good for your pregnancy and general health-being, it is also important that the capsules are enteric coated. Without this property, the stomach acid will easily disintegrate the contents and nothing much will be absorbed. Also, tin and zinc caps or tabs are great transporter to carry these fatty acids for maximum absorption.IN general, salmon oil provides the highest omega-3 essential fatty acids as compared to other fishes... like cod,mackerel and herring. If you are a vegetarian, flax seed oil would be the best options. |

Hi,
Fish oil can take anytime not just for brain, for baby eyes and good for heart too. My gynae already start prescribed me during 1st trimester cos I told me I don't have morning sickness so should be okay. Some patient start at 2nd trimester.
I took this during my 1st pregnancy and now 2nd pregnancy too. Is good for the baby so why not
I took Neurogain, it is special formulated for pregnancy mum and it can take even before you delivered. My gynae has told me is okay to take other omega fish oil outside but has to stop before deliver cos other fish oil is not special formulated and it will thin your blood and you may loss a lot of blood during delivery and it can be dangerous.
After hearing that I think it is save to take the special formulated Neurogain pregnancy fish oil. It is make in Japan and 1 small bottle cost around $30 plus and last for 1 month supply.
Cheers |

It depends on why you wanna take Fish Oil for wat purposes...
According to the Noble Laureate Scientists, Omega-3 Fish Oil may reduce the risk of Coronary Heart Disease and supports joint health.
Currently I am taking Tri Shield with 100% Neptune Krill Oil at night, as you know our body rests and the only muscle that keeps working is the heart. So taking it at night makes me sleep better.
If anyone would like to know more may contact me... |

I'm taking fishoil, so is my 4 yr old. However, just a note to share that there was an article abt safety of fishoil in STs couple of years back, as they come from deep sea fishes, so many in market actually contain heavy metal. The reporter did some research n found 3 safest brands... Can only remember 2 - USANA n Shaklee.. Took Shaklee previously n on USANA now.. so far so good... |

I guess the reporter NEVER heard of Tri-Shield, since it is HIGHLY RECCOMMENDED by the Noble Laureate who created it 30 years ago... |

Hi Ling, if you can't really swallow. The best way is to eat cooked salmon or deep sea fishes once every other days. |

Ling, I have the same problem... I can't swallow and don't know how to swallow pills... and all supplements are in tablets form. What I did is the most stupid method of chewing... -_-"
It is really bitter.. and the fish oil, though the taste is not as strong as I expect it to be... but still yucks...
Anyway, I think I will eat the pills with a strong flavoured drink like warm milo to cover the taste... Hope it won't render the supplements' effectiveness. Sigh... |

Hi,
Can I know where can I buy neurogain fish oil?
My gynae recommended 1000mg pill but neurogain fish pill is only 320mg. Is it still sufficient for baby development?
Thank you |
