Just be aware that the EPA/DHA content is the normal 30%, unlike some of the high potency or ultra high potency ones being mentioned lately.

There is also no mention of how it has been purified.

hmm... my birthday is coming up, perhaps i'll use my birthday membership discount to buy bulk on the GNC fish oils and save that way

I've been consuming Salmon Omega-3 from Nutrilite all the while... so far so good..

What is the recommended cheap one that went thru molecular distillation? Just need to take like 1 per day like vitamin.

What does fish oil do?

read my friend.

i just got interested in this today, after hearing one of my colleague got angioplasty (luckily when he suffered mild heart attack he didn't die). to help prevent heart attack and many other health benefits, take fish oil.

However, this is not as potent as other brands mentioned here. It has natural fish oil 1000mg, but only 300mg of Omega3 which is 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA in a base containing natural vitamin E.

Salmon contains one of the highest concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids and fish oils. Omega-3 Salmon Oil Plus takes advantage of these concentrations by making high-quality fish oil using a process that reduces the amount of fillers.

Hi Every one,

I'm new kid on-the-blog. See a lot of concerns on fish oil....
I might be of help. As I'm on fish oil for a couple of years now...

Added on September 20, 2012, 11:31 pmTrue, only if its Wild Salmon. Unfortunately, most Salmons are reared now with fish feed. Making them produce less Omega3= EPA+DHA. Most Salmon Oil contained only around 300mg(Omega3), although softgel size is 1,000mg.

I thought they only have the GNC Double Strength here in Malaysia that cost rm156.9 for 90s.(EPA+DHA=634mg).

Turn on from fish oil to coconut virgin oil..100% natural product

http://justclickeshoppe.blogspot.com/2012/...anya-rm-39.html

For general health maintenance and heart care, you need 1,000mg(minimum) of Omega3 daily. Anything less than that is as good as not taking. Btw, Vit E(tocopherol) is to preserve the fish oil from rancid...

fish oil is also another snake oil.

Fish Oil is Omega3....anti-inflammation
Coconut Oil is Omega6......

Total cost :- 79.90
Total DHA/Omega3 :- 300mg X 330 = 99,000 mg
cost/100mg = RM0.0807/100mg

Good deal.

The swanson fish oil(550mg, 100 capsule) that i bought has a cost of 0.0909/100mg.

Good analysis. For checking price of fish oil, this is the way to do it.

This is for the fish oil I'm using from USA (Jarrow):

Price: RM110.00
Total DHA/Omega3: 600mg x 240 pills = 144,000mg
Price/100mg = RM0.0764/100mg

wah. thanks drian i never thought to compute it that way, thanks!
and jchong that's a better deal!

i lol at the 'fish oil is also another snake oil' statement hahaha especially the reply 'Ignoring it may find oneself lying in bed like a snake' hahaha

so cheap i recently bought the above product at alph pharmacy for rm 328

So any conclusion which brand of fish oil is the best ?

I have a fairly strange situation. Ever since I began getting Black mores Seafood Oil 1000, I observed that my locks is oilier than regular. I don't even need to use any locks lotion or gel or wax for my locks anymore! Anybody experienced this before?

i have just started on beurogainPB, any1 got info on this? my husband said his fren intro him de, he said his fren has done many research and finally settle on neurogainPB......

You mean this product: http://www.mederis.com.my/NeuroGainPB_Vegi.html ?

I can't see the full specs for this product on the website, but it is supposed to be a "DHA high, EPA low with AA and OA to help Pregnant and Breast-feeding women meet important pre and peri natal nutritional requirements".

This may not be suited for general use since it is high DHA targeted towards pregnancy.

Other than that and the fact it uses veggie softgels, I don't see anything special about it.
