Answers:
Omega 3 Fatty Acids are very good for all sorts of benefits. The most common kinds are Fish Oil and Flax Oil, each of which has different benefits. Fish Oil primarily has the Fatty Acids EPA and DHA, so they help with Cardiovascular, Heart, Brain, and Skin health. Flax Oil has the Omega 3 Fatty Acid ALA, but it also has Omegas 6 and 9 Fatty Acids as well, so it helps with Cardiovascular, Heart, Skin, and a bit of women's hormonal health.
They each have different benefits, but they are both very healthy and it's perfectly safe for a teenage girl to take either one or both in proper doses. I've also heard Puritan's Pride has decent quality, so they should be fine.
also, as far as the Fish Oil, you really shouldn't get "fishy burps" from it unless you're going to burp already... Fish Oil doesn't cause people to burp, it just makes their burps taste more like fish. So as long as you don't eat your food too fast or drink a lot of carbonated beverages, you shouldn't have to worry about the burps. Good luck!Health Question & Answer

Can't hurt, unless you have a fish allergy. Make sure you are getting a enteric coated or burpless kind because some will make you burp fish taste, yuck. I prefer Nordic Naturals or 21st Century brands, they don't cause fish burpsHealth Question & Answer
