Omega - 3 Fish Oil

[John99Test]

Hi

 

[PHIL HERNON]

PERSONALLY

How much fish oil per day do you guys take while on cycle? Does it vary when ur on versus off cycle? Thanks fellas.

I WOULD NOT USE OVER 10 GRAMS A DAY

 

[Mbuffguy]

i take 6 softgels but i get it for 6 bucks at work

 

[Dusty Hanshaw]

I agree with Phil but also have to add that you need to be sure you are getting a very high quality fish oil. The cheaper ones aren't always as healthy because if not taken care of properly while it is being packaged and put in gel caps it can become rancid and you would never know. Also keep it in the refrigerator to keep from spoiling once you have it.

Pretty much agree I wouldn't go much over 10 maybe 15.

Some of these "gurus" recommending mega doses of fish oil are nut-so...30 and 50 grams a day ...can cause clotting problems with the blood.

This is what I use sip it right out of the bottle and take my Vit-D/E/A with it.

I take carlson's D E and A as well-their fish oil has no taste AT ALL...very pure.

My doc put me on 3-4g a day bc my HDL was 27. Never thought to take higher and probably won't. I bought mine from wal-mart 1200mgs caps. I wonder how the quality is. I take 2 in the morning and 2 at night.

I take 10 per day. my wife takes 20 because she is bi-polar.

Massive G,

How much do you use a day and how long does one bottle last you?

Massive G,

It usually lasts me a month or more I take about 2-3 tablespoons a day.
I get it here it's about half price of the manufacturer web site.

Charles Polqin and the T-nation crew seem to be big proponents of taking in mega doses of Omega 111's.
30-45 grams a day I did some searching on polqin and fish oil and came up with a lot of links to read over there.

Hard to tell -many said they had improved recovery slept better less joint pain and muscle pain softer skin etc.

As I tell everyone-try these things and see for yourself-that's the best way to evaluate them.
I use about 15 grams a day from Carlson's oil, and at that time I also take my Vitamin E, D and A. I do get some more mixed omegas in my olive oil and flaxseed oil-omega 3 eggs and smart balance products. My primary interest is heart/CV health.

I also use carlsons lemon in my shakes when dieting (taste is awesome). I found my diets went alot better with large amounts of fish oil, but I did run into a problem with clotting when at the dentist one day, and cut back because of that reason.

 

[BoaMan]

I'm going to try the Carlson's. I have a hard time taking large pills.

Does it matter if I take my day's worth of fish oil all at once?

 

[BuiltOne]

Anyone else have a brand for capsules that they recommend? I would rather take capsules than drink it.

 

[powerrack]

I take 9-12 a day. I thank fish oil caps for relieving tendon issues I had way back, once I upped the dose a bit, my long term tendonitis issues had almost been cured.

 

[LATS]

wow.. you guys take alot ... i usually take 5-6 grams a day..

I started with only 3grams a day, but i didn't feel the help with my tendonitis until I upped the dosage to at least 9grams a day, then I felt it. I know too much is not good, I'll try to keep it to 9-10grams per day.
