omega-3 s anyone?

Hey everyone,
Just a question! At a recent seminar I attended, Dr. Dennis Embry (CEO/Founder PAXIS institute in AZ) talked about taking an Omega 3 supplement especially as a mental health or substance abuse patient because it has shown to restore dopamine receptors in the brain. Has anyone else heard of this? Does anyone out there swear by them?  I have been taking them for roughly two weeks, but of course I wouldn't be feeling better today.....bad bad bad. It's you all on here who are keeping me from cracking under the pain. Thanks so much for your support.

I read a little bit about this. However most of the information came from corporations who where selling them. Never trust a drug or supplement company who stands to make a profit. I would try to do some of your own research on the net. Try to find some un-biased info or scientific evidence.

Or hell, just go out and buy it, see if it works.
