Human: Is it safe to take fish oil capsules? Assistant: 
It depends on the type of fish oil you’re taking. Generally, there are no known side effects from taking fish oil supplements in recommended doses, but some people may experience mild gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating or gas. If these side effects occur, they can usually be reduced by taking the supplement with meals and reducing the dosage. Additionally, if you have a history of bleeding disorders, consult your doctor before starting any new supplement.
