Flaxseed oil question

[PaganPunkstress]

I actually just started taking an oil blend. I love it. It makes me feel really great and energized. Udo's choice Oil Blend rocks! You should try that and it doesn't taste half bad.

where can I find it?

24K how long have you had the oil? Did you just buy it? Flax oil goes bad pretty quickly once it's opened, about 6 weeks in the fridge, much quicker if left out....

If it's bad, you'll get a bitter taste or even a burning sensation on your tongue, and it will start to smell like paint thinner.

I just bought it last week, expire date on it is 2006. No it doesn't taste bitter, no burning sensation, and it smells fine.

It's just my tummy feels upset like an hour after having it. I've never tried the oil before.

Miss24K, my trainer confirmed today that she too cannot take flaxseed oil on its own. She puts it in her shakes. She says taking it on her own makes her want to hurl.

On another note, reading the article posted, if I already take 1tbsp of flaxseed oil, should I use fish oil caps or not on top of that? I don't want to take any more flaxseed oil since it's 120cal/tbsp.

Oh ok... I thought I was losing my mind, with nobody else confirming it makes their tummy funny

Well that depends how much fat are you getting in your diet? 30%?

As soon as my trainer commented about flaxseed oil, I thought of you, Miss24K They all think it's funny that I have internet buddies that I talk to about this sort of stuff.

I have more like 35-40% fat in my diet now. Do you think throwing in a fish oil cap is too much on top of this? I currently eat 15 almonds, 1 tbsp ANPB and 1 tbsp of flaxseed oil as pure fat sources and then there's the smaller amounts of fats that come with my protein sources (turkey burger, chicken, tofu etc). I just thought the extra omega stuff may help in fat burning though.

haha you're too cute. thanks for thinking of me hun

Oh you don't need to add any more fat to your diet.

If you wanted to take the fish oil caps you could switch it with say the almonds or PB. But you definiately are getting enough healthy fats, so I wouldn't add it if I were you.
