It would be better if you take at meal time, especially at dinner time. Omega 3 actions are slow, it will take 8 months to make visible changes.

Hi , it is advisable to take omega 3 with a meal rather than on an empty stomach. There are 2 reasons for this. The first is that omega 3 supplements are more easily tolerated with food than on an empty stomach. The second is that when taken with a meal, omega 3 fatty acids are better absorbed.
