Good Omega-3 Fish Oil Capsules?

[John Henry]

What's a good amount of EPA and DHA per capsule?

I checked out Nature's Bounty and it's a combination of 260 mg per capsule (x2-3 per day) for both but they don't tell you how much of each. Compared to other brands, this seems low.

Life Brand clocks in at 400 EPA and 200 DHA per capsule (x2-3 per day).

Trying to get a rough estimate of what's a decent/good number.

I guess you missed the episode the other night on Market Place . Fish oil capsules are garbage . They tested many companies fish oil and found it to be rancid . Fish oil goes rancid in just a few hours . If you like to waste your money and eat rancid food then by all means take the capsules .

Vitamins are garbage as well . Just eat a good balanced diet of good foods and you will get the proper vitamins that you need. Once saw a company advertise their bread as having a large serving of vegetables in the bread . You would have to eat the whole loaf of bread or just eat a simply carrot to get the same thing .

Vitamins are one of the biggest scams out there . A little time spent on research will surprise you . Don't always believe what the doctors are telling you . Many of them are being paid by the drug companies to push their products so they can make money .

For example people who are taking Vitamin C are not getting the right stuff . Your just getting Vitamin C and not all of the good things that you'll get if eating something that has Vitamin C in it . Pure Vitamin C is not going to help you . Studies show that people who are taking vitamins actually do not live longer then those who don't . Spend the time and money to buy and eat healthy foods .

Check out this doctors you channel and you will see what I mean . No he's not the only one saying this . By the way when Market Place confronted one company about the rancid fish oil in their capsules the company rep didn't know what to say to explain the rancid fish oil . He did say that the capsules were to have a long shelve life but there was no guarantee that the oil wasn't rancid .

No idea about rancid fish oil but I trust most doctors recommending fish oil intake (in some form or another, obviously fresh fish being the best) over Marketplace and it's shlock journalism.

Well stated. Best is to have a balanced died and try to get all this the el natural way. This is just like an illusion, a placebo, intended to maximize profits and give you little in return.

Shock journalism ... I think not . Was it shock journalism when Market Place showed a repairman peeing in a coffee cup and dumping that pee into his clients sink in a kitchen . Was it shock journalism when Market Place set up cameras and showed a maid of a high class hotel cleaning the toilet with a rag and then using that same rag to clean the bathroom sink and the glasses that were put out for people to use to drink from .

No shock journalism here ... Just showing the people what really happens in life . The only shocking thing here is that it really does happen .

No shock journalism here ...

Yeah, the ominous music playing in the background and the ambush interviews makes it totally credible.

Anyhoo. If you want to get your info from Marketplace, have at it. This thread is about Omega-3.

What's a good amount of EPA and DHA per capsule?

None ... now you have your answer . Market place showed people how fish oil pills are garbage . You called it shock journalism . If you wish to keep on taking rancid fish oil then by all means go right ahead . You got a direct answer to your question . I guess it wasn't the answer that you looking for . Deal with it . Where are you looking for an answer to your question ??? On a sex review board !!!! In your words " have it " . Just trying to help you out but I see that's not going to happen . People like you love to shoot the messenger if you don't get the answer that you like . :frusty:

Take all the pills that you think you need . Pick the ones that have a largest amount of rancid EPA and DHA . Yum yum , rancid fish oil . Some people will just put anything in their mouths . Like I really care what you put in your mouth . LOL.

Ambush interviews . Where . They made an appointment with the company rep . Maybe Market Place should have given the company a copy of the questions that were going to be asked . This way it wouldn't have been an ambush interview in YOUR mind .

Have a nice day or what's left of it .

 

[Keebler Elf]

Blah blah blah. Next.

 

[John Henry]

Blah blah blah. Next.

Truth hurts eh buddy . Next time you need to ask a medical question go see a doctor or doctors . Not a sex review board . While your add it maybe a doctor could subscribe a stronger prescription for you . The meds your taking now are clearly not working . Maybe it's all that fish oil that your taking . What's best for me you ask . This amount of rancid oil or that amount of rancid oil.

Walmart has a special on fish oil this week . Maybe if you hurry you can purchase a few cases of rancid fish oil and you'll be all set to live a few hundred years . You could even buy some extra for Christmas presents . That way you could show people how much you care about them .

Gee I'll ask my question about health on a sex review board and get a good answer that I want to hear . :eyebrows: Daaaaa

 

[Keebler Elf]

You still blathering on?

 

[John Henry]

You still blathering on?

Blah blah blah . Go back to your tree and bake some unhealthy cookies little man . Gee I think I'll ask a health question on a Sex Review board . LOL :crazy:

You still upset about the capsules you take are rancid .

Dancing , dancing just for you Elfee . LOL . What saving face here . I gave you a perfectly good reason why not to take fish oil . Because it's garbage you fool . You choose to shoot the messenger like an old fool . You didn't get the answer that you wanted to hear so you went into attack mode . Did you get to Walmart to buy your Christmas Presents ???

Keebler Elf .... Daa what should I take ... So funny. LOL .
