I keep reading about all the benefits of fish oil, but when I take it I develop a feeling of head pressure, lethargy, and difficulty concentrating/brain fog. Even on just one 1g capsule a day. I suspect this is caused by the fish oil raising acetylcholine. I do not do well with choline supplements either. Obviously I can just not take fish oil, but I hate to give up since it's supposed to be so beneficial. Would krill oil or some other source of omega 3s maybe not have this effect? Any other thoughts?
I want to supplement fish oil, but I don't seem to tolerate it well

What about fish oil + alcohol (alcohol is anticholinergic supposedly)? Haven't tried the combo

do you have a study that alcohol is anticholinergic?

I already drink more than I probably should. Hasn't seemed to help.
