Its a real good idea to ask your doc before you try to many things unless your real good at researching them yourself. Look up everything, look for drug interactions, yes even for fish oil and flax seed oil and especially some product that a health food store makes. Some of these things can have real bad interactions if your taking other meds, some can have contamination issues, some can cause allergic reactions or other serious conditions. Generally you shouldn't have a problem, but some people have had real doozies becaues they didn't understand what they were doing.

Bottom line, just because you can buy it at Costco, Sams Club or the health food store, don't assume it can't hurt you.
