I wanted to buy as well.. Thought of getting a few bottles of madre labs. Not too sure about the customs. The last time (2 years) I bought quite a few stuff including 4 bottles of fish oil supplement and it all went through without any issue.

ur fish oil is for maintenance or for cardiovascular issue?

maintenance , or rather for the nutritional benefit as I don't eat a lot of omega3/6 enriched food.

Have stopped taking the pills since early last year when i finished them, and now I am looking to get them once again.

for maintenance, u can actually simply go to AA Pharmacy - which they sell quite reasonable price..

i have to go for iherb for some extra high epa with extra low dha which our pharmacies not selling them

I was planning to get this (apart from madre labs) : http://www.iherb.com/Now-Foods-Ultra-Omega...0-Softgels/8341

Yours is quite high in EPA, and i was looking for something that has higher EPA as well. What is your reason for requiring a higher dose of EPA?

due to triglycerides.. have to opt for high epa and low dha.. ratio of 4:1.. a good article for read up: http://www.naturalhealthadvisory.com/daily...dl-cholesterol/

the fish oil link u shown, this is quite a normal high strength fish oil.. get HSC fish oil from AA - https://www.hsc.com.my/food-fish-oil.php

A good read indeed.

HSC sounds good, price difference isn't big compared to getting the other one from iherb.

I can't really tell is that amount of EPA + DHA is in 1 single pill or in 2 pills. Can't find the nutritional label on any site.

Triglycerides, is it for your heart / Cholesterol or for fat loss purpose?

i'm taking hsc now.. 4 caps a day to achieve at least EPA 1800.. mainly to fight Triglycerides and LDL. -> high triglycerides may contribute to hardening of the arteries or thickening of the artery walls - which increases the risk of stroke, heart attack and heart disease.

was looking another option to reduce number of caps (i.e. reduce number of oil intake vs omega3 oil) but achieving same/more EPA.. thus i found this nordic naturals fish oil..

ya.. can walk-in to local pharmacy.. buying from iherb has the risk of custom clearance.. which makes me hesitate to order now sad.gif

+ as listed, for hsc oil:
(Per 1200mg, i.e. per cap):
-EPA (504mg)
-DHA (240mg)

btw.. fish oil won't help on fat loss smile.gif

I see. Thanks for the breakdown. I think i'll get it locally instead of through iherb.

Are you strength training as well?
