Wtf guys

I wish they came in smaller capsules or chewable or some shit

Hate swallowing three of these giant fucking things such a weird throat feel
>>
>>36150850
That's a no, then.
>>
>>36151346
>chewable
Have you ever accidentally popped one open? The smell and taste is fucking repulsive that's why they're in caps. I feel a bit sick even from burping after taking them.
>>
>>36151346
3? The recommended dose is usually 2 big capsules, and even that's overkill. Just eat some actual fish goddamn
>>
>>36150737
I think you mean identical...
>>
>>36150622
I take it anyway. Even if it is, £0.01 a day is not going to put me on the streets

Ideally they'd add some flavoring and mask that shit somehow

this guy has never heard of a grocery store or canned tuna before

I literally feel a difference in my wrist joints on and off fish oil/vitamin D combo.

Advanced lifting without fish lube is just a nightmare.

Just take the damn pills to prevent injury.
>>
>>36152317
>mask that shit somehow
Not gonna happen, it's literally essence of fish. That they can put it into a air tight capsule with hardly a fishy smell is a miracle.
>>
>>36150622
Why the fuck don't you faggots just eat fish?
>>
>>36150622
helps with my harm OCD.
>>
>>36150663
I stumbled on some studies a while ago , that fish oil actually helps with fat burning , but I still doubt you are sweating because of this
>>
>>36150663
>wtf guys

Um, fuck off???
>>
>>36150622

>yfw you get cancer from rancid polyunsaturated fat that has been sitting on the shelf for a year.

Don't eat this garbage. Eat some wild salmon or a can of sardines once a week.

Here's a thought, get actual fish OIL.
These faggot capsules just make you weak.
Also stop using a trip, it's dumb as all fuck.
>>
>>36150709
Sometimes I forget to bring my fish to the gym but I'm able to hire one from the front desk for a dollar. Although the cost would add up if you had to pay it every day.

Fuck tripfags, nobody cares who they are

Try krill oil if you don't like burping up the taste of pussy.

My friend was like "take fish oil it'll help you lose weight."

As if, if I'm trying to lose fat why on Earth would I eat fish fat? Fat in has to be less than fat out. I told him off but he still didn't believe me. Moron.
>>
>>36150663
Have you ever seen a fish being dry? What the hell would you think would happen if you ingest a fish it's life essence?
>>
>>36156170
That's why you take diet fish oil, half the fish oil, half the calories, thrice as expensive, DUH.
>>
>>36156170
>thinking anything but carbs can be stored as fat.

Please go

You need to put the pills up your ass bro, that way it still gets absorbed, but your fat cells won't be activated because it hasn't passed the receptors inside your small intestines.

Yeah Omega-3 is pretty gud for you

Everyone should remember tho that these are not evaluated by the FDA. These capsules could actually contain no Omega-3 or any other ingredients listed.

Every so often, the state or FDA will do a large scale test to evaluate these supplements but its still pretty rare. These tests usually result in cease and desist orders.

This happened last year in NY, for example, where 19 of the 24 supplements had to be pulled. These are at stores all over, including big names like target, GNC, and wallgreens.
>>
>>36156289
what are some reputable supplement brands then? Specifically for fish oil.
>>
>>36150663
yeah, like, um wtf? i can't even, wtf, like, ugh
>>
>>36156332
Fish.
>>
you need to get that sweet krill oil

I call it trill oil
>>
>>36156332
Fish brand. It's their actual name.
>>
>>36156332
well heres where youre kinda fucked. They FDA themselves recommend contacting the company individually.
They do mention some independent organizations that test these products.

I generally trust NSF
http://www.nsf.org/consumer-resources/what-is-nsf-certification/dietary-sports-supplements-certification

Theres a small "NSF" label on the bottles. You can also search on their site for specific brands.

This is the premier site for food safety. All restaurants in the US require certain equipment and standards to be NSF certified.

The algae/seaweed ones don't taste like shit.
They are also the only non fish source of the good stuff.
