Hi,

I do take salmon oil capsules since some years, but I did not notice a difference in my lung function after starting it. I hope, it does work in the long term...

Jenn,
There are some recent medical journal articles saying that Omega 3 may help lung funcition... ask your doctors, do some searches on it.

I take Fish Oil for cholesterol.

I take fish oil (omega 3).... I don't notice my lung functions up since starting it several months ago, but do think it gives me energy, and I sort of can tell when I don't take it.... just feel "crappier".

Good luck with it.

I have been taking complete EFA's for a decent amount of time now, and no I haven't felt any positive difference in my lungs. I doubt it has any impact on your lungs besides the normal benefit to the human body. I do recommend you look into a good anti caps lock key supplement, you appear to be deficient in that nutrient <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
