http://www.mrvitamins.com.au/thompsons-sal...ps-p-14164.html

claim to be farmed from wild salmons

i am taking natural made omega 3 fish oil.
i bought in US and got it shipped to malaysia.

i do bulk buy also. visit my site ordernpay.blogspot.com

pm me if u are looking any vitamins/supplement in US

which one is better ?

salmon fish oil or Cod fish oil ?

Look for Omega 3 fish oil.

You have to search for pharmaceutical grade is better. Cos the content is precise.
As for the food grade, they may have write this amount, but it is not accurate.

Food grade means as long as it is hygenic then it is ok...
e.g. Ribena is only sugar water. No Vitamin C, but it stated it has. It was on the news. New Zealand high school student was measuring the Vit C level of Ribena. But can't found any.
Pharmaceutical grade means the content has to be precise.

Pharmaceutical grade is very expensive. For 90-120 tablets, supplements will cost in the range of RM200-RM400 per bottle. I only know of one brand in Malaysia which is USANA.

For the lower grade ones, the price is much cheaper and these supplements are the ones you find at pharmacies like 21st Century, Kordel, Blackmores, etc.

I'm recovering from a bad immune system so I have to take more supplements. I went for the cheaper option because the quantities I'm taking is a lot more. ATM, it's 4000 mg of Omega 3 (Blackmore fish oil and Kordel's Wild Salmon oil) but in the evening, I take 2000 mg of Omega 3, 6, 9 (Udo's Oil in capsule form).

Note : I'm doing this under supervision so I wouldn't advise you take the same dosage of me without someone monitoring you.

i am taking a good fish oil, it contain 429mg EPA and 280mg DHA. Total 700mg omega-3 per capsule. it come with ACTISOF formulation for better body absorption. I find worth to take a more concentrate fish oil as more omega 3 mean more distillation process to extract the fish oil, less contamination than taking normal fish oil (like USANA just have 300mg), am i right ?
But can find in Farmasi ALPHA in Klang valley only .....

OMG myremi, that's a lot. But I think consume more supplements doesn't matter, cos it is not drug. The problem is whether your body is able to absorb it or not. If you are under monitoring, should be ok

If i'm not wrong USANA fish oil is less than rm100. which I think it's quite reasonable for the quality...

get well: Alpha pharmacy? Where's that? I know some people are selling it... What fish oil u taking?

Happen to find this site that supposedly lists all the 5star fish oils that passed their tests.

Choose brands of fish oil in tryglyceride rather than ester form.

Triglyceride is the naturally structured oil as in the fish's body, ester is after distillation & altered. There are brands that reconvert esters to triglyceride form and this is ok.

In europe, triglyceride fish oil is the preferred type.

Ester form exists in some type of fish & spermeceti oil but is used for mechanical/industrial use, so u can imagine how tough this oil is. Absorption is a problem because ester type of oil is more for controlling buoyancy & protecting the skin. Triglyceride form is for the fish to consume for energy purposes.

To test if your fish oil is ester, pop the pill & pour onto a styrofoam/polystyrene material. U will notice it eats onto the foam & causes a hole in 10 minutes. Don't worry, this won't happen to your body. I've tried pristin & it ate thro the styrofoam within a few minutes.

Hello..

Just for sharing, I used to take GNC fish oil 1 year ago... i didn't know much about the ingredient because i think fish oil is good for heart and brain and i trust GNC products very much because its brand and available everywhere in the shopping centre.

Until one day, my friend show me a "Comparative Guide book" to Nutritional Supplements. You can order from MPH or AMAZON.

for those who want to compare which fish oil is good. Here's the think you check;

1. Most product will tell you fish oil concentrate 1000mg, but the contains of EPA and DHA is only 300mg. Mostly added other oils or water.
to check simply put in the freezer.

2. free of harmful contaminants

3. cholesterol free (Salmon oil provide alot omega 3 but may not cholesterol free)

4. Pharmaceutical grade


Here's the ingredients for USANA product.

Each softgel (1581mg) contains:
Fish oil concentrate (
providing 600mg total Omega fatty acids,
standardized 290mg EPA, 235mg DHA

Source: Anchovy & Sardine (NOT from Salmon)

Vitamin D3 (for better absorption)

Natural lemon added (Not fishy smell at all)

RM85 only
