I was wondering where you disappeared to. I finally got a notification tonight. I'll be catching up on all the video's I didn't get notified about soon. Glad I got tonights notification.

[ronnyb]

Excellent commentary. Easy to understand and follow along. I'm taking a fish oil supplement with high DHA and EPA. Be sure to read the label of the supplement as many out there contain too little DHA/EPA.

What’s the best thing for someone with a fatty liver and chronic inflammation? Can you do a video on lymphedema? I love the way you break things down. Thank you

[oddball-z]

Whenever I use fish oil it makes my dry eye symptoms worse but duck and goose oil helps any idea why that is...?

[bakingckies]

perfect explanation! i’d love to see more videos on absorption, since I seem to have a problem with that even if I do everything “right” :(

[vicki]

Thank you for the informative videos. Pre and post cervical fusion, I have had many contrast dye MRIs and spinal CT scans, finally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I had bad immediate reaction last contrast. Will fish oil help? And help counter or remove the dyes from my system eventually? I thought maybe it was the dyes making me freeze up.

[margiestephens]

Thank you Dr. Sung for this vital information

[shanepipkin]

needs triglyceride form that means higher quality a extra step vs ee form

[josefavela]

I wonder if the percentages of DHA is on raw fish. If so, what are the percentage on cooked food?

[lousingephut]

Doctor can you please give us a few information regarding toxin if possible then it will be great .

[lucacavalli]

What do you think of the new study that made the association between assuming Omega 3 and developing Atrial Fibrillation?
(i think it was atrial fibrillation i may be wrong). I can't quite figure out how much fish oil would hypotetically be safe to take after this study. Do you think it's a problem of dosage?
Omega 3s are essential nutrients so i can't figure out how or why this happens. In my ignorance i assume it's the dosage. What do you think?

[manjolaskendo]

Thank you for this video. At least you accept that afib might happen when taking omega 3 oil. I have not found yet a solution to this situation or a reason why it happens so to treat the cause. Is it allergy or problems in the heart? Thank you in advance to an answer

[SitAndChatWithTonyaAndMisty]

Dr. Jim what if someone is not voiding normally daily?

[MrSmoocher]

When you say DHA is “Essential”…. Are you saying that our body does not produce DHA therefore we NEED to supplement with DHA?
Ex…. Cholesterol is essential as well, correct??

[josephdouglas]

What about other Omegas, Omega 6 or 9, Omega Complexes, what do you think about a full Omega Complex? Is Omega 3 the only one that is truly beneficial?

[Laxnut]

Do you have any input on Fermented Skate Liver Oil for decalcifying your body and improving dental health?

[lowbarb]

Sadly most are rancid... Better to just eat the fish or fish liver.. Eating brain is good too.

[Betelgeue]

Using Cod liver oil --it smells and taste nasty when I burp and suffer from acid reflux....yuummm haha

[Retired_SeniorChief]

I am more interested in the retinol and naturally synthesized Vit D from COD liver oil than I am EPA/DHA/Omega 3. By putting this out you are hiding the real need for retinol (Vit A). We have known since 1926 the cause of cancer is Vit A deficiency. Montrose T. Burrows, 1926, Southern Medical Journal.

farm vs wild salmon is wrong fact check that information
