Guide To The Treatment Of Berger's Disease

Fish Oil Supplements

Fish oil supplements are an ideal source of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s have been shown to naturally reduce inflammation without causing negative side effects. Patients interested in fish oil supplements should research the potency of the brands they are considering. It is important for Berger's disease patients to consult a physician or pharmacist about a safe dosage. Fish oil capsules also tend to be quite large, and some patients may have difficulty swallowing them, thus, if necessary, patients can open the capsules and pour the liquid into a drink or on top of a meal. For patients who are allergic to fish, plant-based omega-3 supplements are available, and chia seeds, walnuts, and flaxseeds are excellent dietary sources of these fats as well. Patients who supplement their diets with fish oil sometimes choose to take it with another supplement called mycophenolate mofetil. Like fish oil, this supplement has no side effects, and it can reduce protein in the urine for patients who have not responded to other treatments.
