Re: Is there a difference between EPA and Pro EPA?

[Guest guest]

Hey !

If you can't wait, go ahead and get the EPA. You won't find the

ProEPA at the store. You CAN find it on the CHERAB site, though.

The EPA is the exact same as the ProEPA...you just get 30 more caps

per bottle with the ProEPA.

Hope you go this in time!

There are other things that nordic naturals make that's not in their website. I

wished I knew why.

I must be blind as a bat... I've been looking on the Nordic Naturals

site for Pro EPA, and just can't find it. I've found EPA and EPA Xtra,

but the dose is not the same.

I was hoping to find Pro EPA at my local GNC or Vitamin Shoppe tomorrow

(yeah, too impatient to wait for the package), but neither have it

listed online. If anyone can give me a good answer by the morning, that

would be awesome. The fact that it's 3 a.m. and I'm still sitting here

typing means that these stupid SPEAK capsule's side effects are

freakin' me out. As I told my husband tonight, he's doing great on

them, but after reading other people's horror stories, I could never

forgive myself if anything happens to my baby...

Well, I went to Vitamin Shoppe, and bought EPA Xtra instead of

regular EPA (thinking Pro... Xtra... must both be better...). Anyway,

the doses are a little higher, so I hope they don't throw anything

off by too much. I'll be ordering my next supply from Cherab (for

less than Vit. shop, I'm sure!), but I felt the need to start them

right away.

Either way, he took them SO easily!!! I poke a hole in it, and he

bites down on it and pretends to be a puppy. Hey - whatever works. I

gotta say - I got a little on my hands, and it barely smells at all!

Thanks for your help!!

try to find the Omega 369 at Vitamin Shoppe because the EPA

Xtra is not at all the formula any of us have tried with success in

the majority. In my opinion it's best to start with what works for

most and that's an Omega 3 formula higher in EPA with a bit of GLA

from primrose or borage seed oil which is the GLA. In addition to

being higher in dosages of EPA, EPA Xtra is a pure Omega 3 so no

GLA/Omega 6. Here's the history of how I and then the group learned

that was important http://cherab.com/information/historyEFA.html

Why don't you take the EPA Xtra? Take 'Xtra' if/when you have an IEP

meeting!

Sorry, I should've been clearer. What I purchased was one bottle of

NN Complete Omega 369, and one bottle of EPA Xtra. Gah! It was the

stupid EPA that was so darn expensive... figures it's the wrong one.

Well, I'll probably give one EPA Xtra to him tomorrow along with the

2 369 caps since I won't be able to make it to a store, and I'll just

get the regular on Monday.

Since he was up to 4 speak before switching, should I start him on 4

369s a day, or should I go back to 2 for now? Thanks again.
