Thank you RB, and especially for the education on the real use of "snake oil". Never again will I use that term as a deragatory reference! I only cook with EVOO(perhaps I should add snake oil to my culinary cabinet) although I do use small amounts of butter when I hanker for a piece of toast(whole grain of course!)
I've been taking only one capsule daily of this supplement. I was wondering if I needed to take 2 caps, but will look for a straight fish oil capsule to add instead. And will talk to my onc.
Thanks again,
<3 Lolly
