I used to take an omega 3 supplement but I stopped. Do you really think it would help my joints?

This may really be a challenge for vegans like me. I really wouldn't want to be taking anything that has animal ingredients on it. If I can find anything artificial with the same benefits, I would go for it. If not, I might just drop out of this challenge. I am not saying I am better than everyone else. I am 100% sure they could be healthier. It's just that personally, I am really not comfortable being healthy at the expense of the suffering of other living creatures. I am not being self righteous. Again, it's all just about personal comfort.
