What could be the side effects of taking large quantities of DHA?
The medical community does not know the answer to this question and this unknown outcome should send up red flags to the consumer. The optimal dose for patients maybe 50 to 100 times higher than the amount contained in on-the-shelf DHA preparations. In the very least, excessive DHA will create a detrimental level of excess fat in the stools and cause great discomfort when taken in its current form. It has been reported in the medical literature that high does of DHA may even suppress growth in children. The full danger of side effects should prevent individuals from experimenting on their own.
