I wonder what omega 3 does to the brain?

I was a vegan before and I didn’t get omega 3 in my diet. Because of this I suffered a lot of mental stress, sort of like mental akathisia where it’s stressful to be in your own mind. Started taking omega 3 and it basically cured this stress. So I figure it must be important in some way?

Make sure your omega 3 supplements are rancid and make you sick. Fish oils oxidised very quick and a lot of companies sell rancid omega 3 supplements. Hopefully you got a good one.

I eat fish instead of supplements.

Just remember to not overdose, like just take the omegas every other day or you will overdose

Got it. So what happens if you overdose on omega 3,… I didn’t think you could.

Yes, they say it’s very important for health. I have more or less taken it my whole life, so don’t know how it feels to not take it. There aren’t many plant sources for it. The only one I can think of is Walnuts. There are probably a few others though.

I overdosed and felt ill, very poor and depressed. It may be different for you though.
