I can't get in to see my new ND for about a month but I'd like to see if anyone else has experienced this and/or what those who DON'T take FCLO DO take.

I've taken 1 tsp FCLO/day for several months, stopped for a couple months, then repeated that cycle. What I noticed was that I was incredibly quick-tempered and irritable while taking FCLO. I can't find much info about this online since, of course, CLO in general is supposed to be a mood stabilizer! I don't experience this irritability when I'm NOT taking the FCLO (quite the opposite--I notice I feel much calmer--this seems counter-intuitive!) I'd like the health benefits of the FCLO but don't want to keep taking it until I can get this figured out. I really don't want to have to suffer any more irritability to test it out either ;-)

For those who don't take FCLO for whatever reasons, do you take fish oil instead? skate oil? Which type/brand/amount? I remember researching this over a year ago and getting scared about the oxidation of the fish oil or something but I don't remember those details. Other foods I could eat to replace the equivalent nutrients (besides liver)?
