QUOTE(Ramjade @ Mar 13 2025, 03:49 PM) No. Nothing to do with that. Ethyl ester are cheaper to produce and able to increase concentration but goes bad faster and less absorbed. I'm still new to this, but do you have any personal recommendations for fish oil? Would you mind sharing a few links from iHerb if you have any favorites? All fish oil companies extract the fish oil in triglyceride form(original form) then change it to Ethyl ester. Majority leave it there as finish product but you want better absorption and longer shelf life need to change it back to triglyceride form. The extra step is costly. That's why not many companies want to do the extra step by converting it back to triglyceride form. |

I like Innovixlabs triple strength, 900mg per capsule. IFOS certified. Ester form, not triglyceride, but two of these per day helped me get my Omega-3 Index waaaay up - I'm basically a dolphin now |

First time discovering iHerb. Looking to buy magnesium glycinate to help with calming nerves and sleeping. Lac got sell but I think itโs pricier. Plus I can get more pills on iHerb at the same price as what Lac is selling. Is it really trustworthy? I never buy supplements online and always go to local pharmacy to buy so abit wary about it ๐

Did you know LAC is bought over by a Chinese company? The American owners sold it to a Chinese company. Dunno if you trust Chinese companies or not, but just putting it out. |

Supplements as a thing is not exactly regulated. Was taking a bunch of them and my liver function numbers were too high when they ran tests during hospital admission. I asked the doctor about the high numbers during a follow up, and he told me to stop taking them for a month so that they could redo the liver function test after that to see if it was my liver or the supplements. It was the damn supplements cos my numbers were normal again. Supplement dosage is normally way too much for what the body needs..Speaking of magnesium supplement, Alpro Sugi (if you live near one) has their own in house brand magnesium bisglycinate: one bottle of 60 is RM58, 2 bottles for RM100? If not, most of the usual pharmacies might also have... or just ask the pharmacists working there. Don't ask a bunch of forum randos LOL |

iHerb is very trustworthy, been using it for years i think over 6 years already. it is more legit then unknown sellers in shopee/lazada, unless you buy from official stores. Maknusia liked this post

Dunno if you trust Chinese companies or not, but just putting it out. I think you meant GNC.GNC previously was operated as a franchise in Malaysia by LAC since 20+ years back. GNC got bought over by a Chinese company and they sold their manufacturing plant in America. LAC terminated the franchise agreement during the first MCO after the change in shareholding and went into legal dispute with GNC. Long story short, LAC now is selling products under its own brand in all the LAC stores operating in Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Philippines, and as well Watson's pharmacy. LAC does not have any China shareholders and products definitely does not come from China. Cheers. |
