A member asked:
Is it possible to be allergic to fish oil although i'm not aware of having a fish allergy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: A true allergy highly unlikely because fish oil contains only trace amounts of proteins you are eating when having fish and that can cause severe allergies.
