Too much Fish Oil / Flax ?

[danielson]

I think he meant he's taking fish oil for the O3's and Hemp for the O6's

yup thats what i meant i wan2bsolid

hemp has omega 3 as well but has more 6 than 3 and gamma linoic acid



i take 2 tbs hemp each day + 2 fish oil caps and its fine, im not piling on weight like crazy, i just eat relativly clean

i think flaxseed oil and fatty fish increase testosterone and sexdrive and skin complexion and help with strength. i get most of my fish fats from large peices of catfish

I used to take 2-3 tbsp of Udo's blend oil/ED, but now I just take in about 1Tbsp. Just felt there was no need for excess amount when your getting other fats from your diet?

it depends on what type of fats your talking about

saturated fats aren;t all that good

essential fatty acids etc (good fats) are great if you;ve worked them into your diet, but dont forget theycan get destroyed by heat, or at least reduced in no. so cooking might do it

what foods are you eating to get the fats? are they good fats?

I try to only eat Poly, Mono's, and Essential's, sometime eat a steak- which has alot of saturated, but mostly my diet's clean of it. I know that essential's are good for you, but I'm just saying you don't need excessive amounts of them...remmeber what you don't use get's stored, you don't just piss it out.

this is true

you've just gotta find a balance between whats too much and what isnt

on the mass quantities site i remeber it said 1 tblespoon flax per 75lbs. not sure if this is still there, but i go by this and it works for me


sounds like your diets good though. im consideing switching from semi skimmed milk to fully skimmed (0.1%fat) as im getting pretty much all my saturated fat from the litre of milk i drink

I stick to Fat free milk, taste just as good to me. Ive been drinking it for so long if you give me 2% or whole milk, its way too rich and makes me gag, tastes like cream. All types have the same protein content too which i good. BTW i eat 2 Tbspoons of flax seed with my cottage cheese as last meal, do i need to grind it or is it digesting fine?

im not sure


gvne its a seed im guessing your bosy wouldnt digest it very well so chewing it or grinding it probably wouldnt hurt.

might be worth posting it on a separate thread to hear what others think

gross why don't you use something else that at least taste good with your cottage cheese? If you need some recipe's I'll hook you up...cause that sounds like sheot.

I was using borleans flax but I switched to thier Omega twin because it contains 3's and 6's along with 9's.
