Fish Oil

I do you them, and I use iForce Mint Infused Fish Oil.

Fish oils them selves are not necessary, there are other ways to get in your omega fats like Udo's oil for example. I find that popping a few fish oil caps are easier and when I get that burp it tastes like mint instead of fish oil.
 
One of the best general health products you can purchase. The benefits of EPA/DHA are too many to count. I use Controlled Labs OxiMega. I get around 2g combined EPA/DHA daily.

This is what I do/use also. You can usually find them for buy 2 get 1 free or the likes making it extremely cost effective.
 
I use a terrific Vitacost product. 6 grams per day gives the therapeutic doses of EPA/DHA.

It is the only product (including some that are enteric coated) I've used that leaves 0% fish burps.
 
After years of taking fish oil, I'm starting to think that it's simply a great way to separate a fool from his money. I've done everything from mega-dosing it to pulse doses to 3g/day every day for years...nothing to report with it or without.

IMO, eat some sockeye salmon a few times a week and call it good.

Well you won't "feel" the omega benefits outside of joint/tendon protection. So... not the smartest thing but to each his own. It's your body.
 
Eating salmon a few times a week > fish oil capsules

Factor in the high probability that the o3 have oxidized making the fish oil rancid thus making Irish Cannon suggestion actually the smartest thing

Cool but I don't eat or like fish. Not to mention i'm in stitches over your rancid fish oil comment. Literally, stitches.
 
Reducing overall dietary omega 6:3 ratio via consuming less total omega 6 fats is more effective than either fish oil or eating more seafood.

You would have to eat a LOT of seafood to consume significant amounts of omega 3s, additionally, you need to be buying wild caught salmon since farm-raised salmon suffer from the same compromised omega 3:6 ratio as farm raised cattle.

omega-3 fats are easily oxidized and lets face it, supplement manufactures dont have the best quality control so it is very probable that these bottles are left out in room temperature for prolonged periods of time and most likely have become rancid.

I dont understand what exactly has you in "stitches". Are you contesting the peroxidizability of polyunsaturated fatty acids?

The n-3 PUFA are more peroxidation-prone than n-6 PUFA and within each PUFA class there is 4-fold increase in peroxidisability between the short- and long-chain fats. DHA (22:6) is 320-fold more susceptible to peroxidation than OA (18:1).

You could also bring in the old trig bound n3 which is the only form fish oil caps use..

Well if one continues to eat a high n6 diet then you are correct, eating fatty fish such as salmon wont help much. But, if one were to cut down on their n6 intake, which quite frankly they should do regardless, than eating fish should be sufficient. Farm raised salmon contains roughly assumes 10.7 grams of EPA + DPA + DHA per pound.

3,114 men were followed for 3-9 years and at the end of the study what the researchers observed was a significant increase in sudden cardiac death among the subgroup taking fish oil capsules

yea I know correlation but still relevant

ethyl ester is still used. Isnt the pharma brand fish oil, Lovaza, ethyl ester?

To be fair, the consumption of oxidized fish oil hasnt been shown to have deleterious effects in humans

Ah! Is it trig bound isnt used? I remember physicus bringing it up on CS

What are the ingredients in LOVAZA?
Active Ingredient: omega-3-acid ethyl esters, mostly EPA and DHA
Inactive Ingredients: alpha-tocopherol (in soybean oil), gelatin, glycerol,
purified water.

Glad you posted in here Judo. Fish oil (imo) has went from one of those slam dunk everyone should be loading it up type supplements to something that at least should give one pause before jumping in at mega doses. I've increased my fish consumption and lowered my use of fish oil capsules in the last year.

Jerry: Because I killed first and warmed up the crowd. He's like that fish

that attaches himself to the shark.

George: And you're the shark?

Jerry: Yeah, I'm the shark and he's the fish eating my laughs.

George: I don't know how a fish could eat laughs.

Touey - you are out of controll
 
Haleo Aqua Red is a favorite of mine. SAN Triple Strength Fish Fat and NOW's Ultra Omega supplement are great choices as well.
 
I use straight fish oil in lemon flavor from Vitamin Shoppe on a tbl spoon. No burps and the taste is pleasant.
 
Controlled Labs Orange OxiMega because I don't have the money or free time to deal with preparing and eating that much fish during the week
 
What's the consensus on Omega 6's? There are several varying opinions I see.

Particular omega 6 fatty acids, such as arachidonic acid, can be highly beneficial for athletes.
