Re: High Potency Pure Fish Oil ..UK.......

[Guest guest]

For Those in the UK and Ireland,

Eskimo-3 is a high quality product I would consider to be as close

to Carlson's as you can get where you are. I don't know how this

price compares with other stores there but you can research this (see

search URL below).

Eskimo-3 available here:

FYI, Yahoo allows you to search almost anywhere in the world. Here

is the UK/Ireland search URL:

Sorry guys, now I'm getting confused. The Omacor that my GP gives me

is not good?

I think thats what you are saying?

I am off to google for Carlsons and eskimo-3, will let you all know if

I find somewhere in the UK.

Gee, I thought that was the only good thing my GP was doing

Love Ya

** It looks like your GP was also fooled by the numbers. The better

fish oil is a natural fish oil . The Omacor product is poorly

assimilated (about 25% assimilation which means you're getting less

EPA and DHA than with other non-ester fish oils).

Thanks , I can find the eskimo-3 in the UK, but have not

yet found somewhere that stocks the Carlsons.

For anyone in the UK that is interested the link is

http://www.nutricentre.com/pages/search.aspx?search-

catalog=Products & search-phrase=eskimo+3

The Nutricentre are reliable, its where I get all my other

supplements from!!

Looks like I am changing to become an eskimo!!!

With Love

Hi ,

You should be taking 3-4 tsp a day. Work your way up to it, if

necessary, but don't skimp on the fish oil!

Thanks Kim Isn't 1050mg EPA in one teaspoon too much, let alone 3/4 tsp per day ??k_denise1111 wrote: Hi , You should be taking 3-4 tsp a day.
