I’ve personally noticed some powerful effects from fish oil: 1) it can act as a neotropic booster, particularly in conjunction with SRI’s and similar meds / substances, 2) it can cause me significant insomnia (no arrhythmia) if I take ~6-8 capsules.
Is that germane to this thread? Probably not, but something seems to be going on. Maybe fish oil has been studied so far on too limited a basis.
The other point I want to throw out there is that Omega 3 is essential, it cannot be endogenously provisioned, and I’m not sold that ALA sufficiently stands in for EPA and DHA

I guess I should have said “ineffective for the various health claims”. Anything can have an effect if taken in large enough doses. :)
