omega 3

Omega-3 fatty acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

any one else taking this? I started taking it 2 weeks ago and already have noticed the benefits. I have been having better concentration and just feel good generally. I do construction so my body gets a lot of abuse and I've noticed that my general level of soreness has gone down. great stuff so far!!

Glucosamine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

also I started taking Glucosamine Sulfate which is supposed to be great for maintaining cartilage and preventing arthritis. hopefully it will get rid of my joint soreness. it's supposed to take 2 months to start working though so I'll get back to you guys on that one.

Take both.

Def helps.

Stay on the glucosamine or it fades and you'll get sore.

I add flaxseed oil(omega 3 6 9) to my protien shakes in the mornings; this shit is a must have in anyones diet.

Take too much flaxseed and it'll make your skin oily as fuck.

I take it 2 times a week max.

the dose I'm taking contains 1000mg flax seed oil and I take that 3 times a day. should I really worry about this? what's the deal with Omega 3 6 9? is it better?

[hardstylin]

What is flax seed oil and what are the benefits?

6 and 9 are just other essential fatty acids your body actually needs. most supps you buy are a combo of all 3.

Hmm you could be right. I will reduce my intake and see if that makes a difference in the skin oil...

i take both salmon oil and flax seed oil. i saw the omega 3 oils at shoppers drugmart for about 12.99. this one has 400mg epa and 200mg dha

the one gram flaxseed i am taking has 450mg ala.

this stuff moderated my moodswings since taking it regularly since 2005.

i'm not sure if this translates to humans, but in horses Omega 3's have been shown to reduce mild inflammation, dry or itchy skin and promote coat/skin health. i tested those effects on my old dog and he showed a dramatic improvement in his ability to handle stress and his hot spots went away.

so Omega 3's may also be what's making your joints feel better IMO :)

good shit.
