Carol:
It looks like there's a clinical trial underway with this type of EPA ending in 2006. I found that under this link:
(http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct/gui/show/NCT00096798).
I'm not certain how, exactly, the ethyl EPA differs from the EPA in Omegabrite or other fish oil brands. Dr. Stoll claims to have the most effective type of EPA in his pills, but, like you, even at 2-3 grams per day, I felt nothing. Good luck and more power to ya, if the stuff you ordered works.Chris
> hi all--i have followed your fish story with interest. because i have tried 2g a day of omega 3s with no success, i decided to order some ethyl-epa (what the research is based on.) i ordered from an outfit called vitamin research products off the internet--has anyone tried this?
