I need to add more Omega-3 to my diet, to help my cholesterol, as well as dry eyes. I’ve used some fish oil capsules before, but they always make me burp up a fishy taste (yuck)! Do all Omega-3 supplements cause this fishy aftertaste? Are there any good ones that don’t?

Fish oil capsules often “repeat” on you because the oil inside is rancid, which makes it not only gross but also less potent. (That’s also why the oil is enclosed in capsules in the first place.) As an alternative, I would recommend going the liquid route – that’s how you know that if it tastes good going down, you won’t be tasting it again later.
Two brands of liquid fish oil that claim to have a pleasant flavor are Coromega and Carlson’s. Personally, however, I take Omega Cure ( http://www.omega-cure.com ) – it’s frozen and super fresh, so it’s extra potent and completely taste-free. You can mix it in with yogurt, juice, salad dressing, or whatever, and you get 2,010 mg of EPA and DHA in every two-teaspoon daily dose.
