Flax and Fish Oil?

[Def Lep]

I currently take 1000mg of Fish Oil, and 1000mg Flax Oil. Is this unneccessary considering they are both rich in Omege-3??? Or does it even matter?

Keep the fish oil and get rid of the flax. Lifter brought up a bunch of studies showing Flax lowering testosterone levels quite significantly. Fish oils, Olive oil and walnuts are my main sources of EFA's now.

Right on the money.

If you can find them: greenland shark oil or 'Thorsk Lysi' (icelandic cod oil)

Walnuts are a godsend for the need to add both EFAs and mouth-feel to oatmeal. SteelCut oats with some ground cinnamon, vanilla paste, splenda and walnut pieces ROCK.

The part of the Omega 3 that you should judge the supplement you buy is the content of EPA and DHA per serving. If you get anything better than this, please let us all know:

When I took Fish Oil I had nast fish breath and burped it up alot. So I went to flax, olive oil and soybeans.

If I take it in the morning fish oil doesn't sit well with me either. I still take 1 capsule at night.

I usually keep hempoil in the house and EVOO in the house at all times.

I go out of my way to avoid soy.

I have really shitty cholesterol (genetic) I freaking refuse to take drugs for it, they'll probably kill me before heart disease will so I really want to maintain good ratios.

Try enteric coated fish oil. Will completely eliminate the "burps". What is happening is the fish oil is starting to dissolve by the stomach acid before hitting the intestines.
