Is it safe to take omega 3 fish oil capsules and folic acid?

I'm currently taking folic acid. Is it safe to take omega 3 fish oil too to help boost my chance to conceive?|||Fish oil is excellent. If you take fish oil for omega-3 supplementation be sure and consume "pharmaceutical grade". Pharmaceutical grade fish oil is much more concentrated so you obtain much more benefits from a given dosage and toxins such as PCB's, dioxin, mercury and oxidized lipids have been removed. Typical health food grade fish oils are not pharmaceutical grade. The only way to be sure is to ask to see third party laboratory anaylsis of the finished product. It should contain at least 60% long chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA + DHA), less than 45 ppb PCB's and less than 1 ppt dioxin|||Of course it's safe.


The only damaging effects you'll get are from prescription drugs -- the 4th leading cause of death even though "properly prescribed".


No one has ever been maimed or killed by herbs and supplements.|||Yes both are helpful not only in conceiving. Fish oil is also good for the heart. Both are just supplements and no contraindications with it.
