Omega 3 ...
Hello Doctor
I am.46 years old female
Because of inflammation my doctor has prescribed omega 3 capsules
But I have high pitta and this is causing slightly heavier bleeding
Have to buy a vegetarian omega3 supplement but all the available brands have Flax seed as the main ingredient that aggravates pitta because of its hot nature
What alternative can I take as a vegetarian non heaty omega 3 supplement ..Only non inflammatory food items are not sufficient ..need to take this atleast for 3 months
Kindly suggest
Thanks

Hello mam,
You can try a vegetarian Omega3 capsule - algal oil.
Algal oil is extracted from microalgae (tiny aquatic plants) & is rich in DHA. It is suitable for patients with high Pitta.
