I have been running fish oil for four months and the honest summary is that the effect is smaller than the internet suggests and real. Tolerance and underdosing look identical from the inside, which is why the answer is usually a blood test and not more forums.
Same here.
My rule, after years of this: if it cannot survive being written down with the numbers attached, it is marketing.
A plausible mechanism is not an outcome, and this class is the textbook example. Tolerance was my main issue with fish oil too.
Same here.
Sleep, food, or the compound? Yes.
Nobody has ever been talked out of a stack by a stranger on the internet.
Cold storage, light protection, date on the vial. Boring, removes half the variables.
Name the active ingredient, not just the brand. It makes these threads searchable years later.
An inconclusive account is useful if it stops the next person mistaking a story for a controlled comparison. Currently on fish oil myself.
Narrow conclusion.
Stupid question: how do you know whether what is in the vial matches the label at all?
Sleep, food, or the compound? Yes.
How long before you can reasonably say something is or is not doing anything?
Same here.
