Kelly, Houston, TX Oct 11th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Good for overall health, inexpensive, no side effects, skin is softer and smoother, hair is very shiny, nails are strong, cholesterol is down Cons: Occasional fishy burps (haven't tried the freezer trick, and the burps don't seem to happen when I take regularly vs just starting or after skipping doses) Bottom Line: I have been taking this for a few months and have seen a definite improvement, especially with nods. It's not expensive, I got a huge bottle for less than $20 at Walgreens 750 ct @ 1000 mg - that will last several months. I take between two and four of these per day depending on what I eat. I had been considering Accutane but don't think I will go that route now. Advice to those who think their skin gets oiler - it's VERY important to avoid hydrogenated oils or you won't get the benefits. No fried foods, no chips, no cookies... Read the ingredients before you buy things or put them into your body. Hydrogenated oils and trans fats are bad for you in many more ways than acne-related, anyway. Study up on omega-3 and omega-6 oils. Bring down your intake and 6s and markedly increase your intake of 3s and see what happens. Recommended: Yes Usage: Kelly has used this item for a few months.

Tom, Storrs, CT Oct 6th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Affordable, good for your cholesterol and cardiovascular health Cons: minimal effect on acne. Bottom Line: Have been taking fish oil for almost a year and a half now. I have done both small doses, 4 pills a day, and large doses 10 pills a day ( 2.0 EPA). Unfortunately, I have not noticed substantial benefits acne-wise. Might provide minimal improvement, but I personally do not believe it can have much of an impact on acne. Recommended: Yes Price Paid: 10.00 Acne severity: light Was this comment helpful?

Erin, Vancouver, Canada Sep 9th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Great for your body, helps balance hormones, may help in aiding weight loss. Cons: The pills are a bit intimidating if you are not used to swallowing larger pills.

Anonymous, Toronto, Canada Sep 4th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: gives you healthy skin, hair and nails. helps level out fluctuating hormones that can cause acne Cons: can take a month or so before it starts to work, can be expensive Bottom Line: Buy the cod liver oil in a bottle at the health food store and take 2 teaspoons a day with food. If you're like me and your acne is caused by hormones this will really help to even it out and make you feel better about yourself.

Carly, Maine Aug 24th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Very good for your body. Anti-inflamitory Cons: the pills can be a bit intimidating to swallow. they are pretty big Bottom Line: I've only been using fish oil pills for about 3 days. I take 2 pills in the morning and 1 at night. it has cleared up my skin pretty well for only 3 days. its so much better than using an acne product because you don't even have to touch your face. but i do recomend you use some kind of face wash just to be sure. Recommended: Yes Usage: Carly has used this item for a day or two. Price Paid: 5.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Beth, USA Aug 17th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: The type of fish oil pills that I have tried are perfect and have no bad aftertaste. I've been using Nature Made Fish Oil pills, that I just purchased from Wal-Mart yesterday, and already my acne has been clearing up, within just two times taking it. Cons: I bit pricey, but I'm realizing it is worth it. I've noticed it works for some people, and with others it makes their skin worse. I guess it may be too powerful for other people. Bottom Line: This product has worked great for me so far. I know it's only been my second time taking it, but nothing has worked this good on clearing up my skin, and so fast. It works best for me when I take just on fish oil pill a day with a multi-vitamin, and the antioxidant Selenium 200. I know that fish oil pills are good for everything in your body, not just for skin :) so I recommend using this method daily. Recommended: Yes Usage: Beth has used this item for a day or two.

Trent, Australia Aug 14th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Easy to take, not too expensive. Cons: Makes me burp and I have bad integestion. when I burp it smells all fishy. Bottom Line: Have only been taking them for a week or so, so not seen any difference, I did seem to get a big breakout a day or two after I started taking them, but not sure if the fish oil capsules were to blame...I will take one every couple of days as they give me bad integestion.... Recommended: Yes Usage: Trent has used this item for about a week. Price Paid: 13.99 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Brittney, Florida Aug 10th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Reduced number of new breakouts, healthy for your entire body Bottom Line: I've been taking 3g of Omega 3 Fish Oil a day for the past week. I haven't had any new breakouts since I started taking it. It hasn't cleared up what was already there, but no new pimples for a week is a huge deal. I see no reason not to try this, because even if it doesn't help your skin, it is so wonderful for the rest of your body. Especially if you don't eat fish, like myself, and are lacking omega 3 in your body. Recommended: Yes Usage: Brittney has used this item for about a week. Price Paid: 4.00 Acne severity: light Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)
