Does Omega-3 Cause Side Effects?
A normal dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids (that is, through food) is probably free of significant side effects. However, even though they are “natural” products, omega-3 supplements may cause problems. For most people, these side effects are merely bothersome. However, potentially serious reactions are possible, especially when taken at higher dosages, which is often necessary in order to obtain some of the omega-3 benefits.
