Conclusion: This extensive systematic review and NMA of nutraceuticals for treating depressive disorders indicated a number of nutraceuticals that could offer benefits, either as adjuncts or monotherapies.
EPA side effects
Across 41 first-hand reports, people mentioned a side effect 7 times (about 17 per 100 reports). The most common: dizziness, insomnia, jitteriness. User reports show what people notice — they can't tell you whether EPA is safe for you.
Reported side effects
In their own words
“I've tried EPA on two separate occasions... I noticed myself feeling more stimulated, irritable, but also a bit moodier and low. When I stopped taking EPA, I felt better”
“Two weeks in and I see a significant improvement in cognition and memory...vision has *slightly* improved”
Is EPA safe? What the research covers
Conclusion: The benefits of nutritional interventions with various compositions for pressure ulcer prevention and treatment are uncertain. There may be little or no difference compared to standard nutrition or placebo. Nutritional supplements may not increase gastrointestinal side effects, but the evidence is very uncertain. Larger studies with similar nutrient compositions would reduce these uncertainties. No study investigated the effects of special diets (e.g. protein-enriched diet, vegetarian diet) on pressure ulcer incidence and healing.
