Flax Seed Oil (or Hemp, or Fish)

[Guest guest]

With my luck, the fish oil has Mercury in it. I'm already OD'd on too much

mercury from teeth fillings.

Re: Flax Seed Oil (or Hemp, or Fish)

I have a botle of fish oil by Nordic Naturals and it has a lemon flavor in

it.I have also used another fish oil i got in the refrig section and it also had

a lemon flavor added.My sister takes a cod liver oil and it is lemon flavor

too.I guess they do that otherwise it would taste pretty bad.I have never taken

it w/out lemon flavor.

So if you like lemon taste, it's not bad..

Just another reason to starve oneself to death & get it over with.

Mercola says it's safe: " Fish oil and cod liver oil don't pose the

same risk as fresh fish as they are purified of mercury and other

contaminants found in fish. "

by the way, flax seed processed oil is different than fresh flaxseed

Well I'm not about to toss out all my ground flax seed or the Udo's oils with

flax oil in it either. I just bought a new bottle of it on Friday in fact.

You bet I'm going to continue using it at least until I'm more stablized on the

Armour or if I think it's at all interfering with it. I'll experiment with that

after I start taking the Armour & see.

I could change to fish oil later on too tho, no problem. I was raised on cod

liver oil & got used to taking that every day when younger so it won't bother

me. But not in a smoothie, that's fer shure.

It's all an individual thing anyway with each of us. One size doesn't fit all,

even with foods or other supplements.

Re: Flax Seed Oil (or Hemp, or Fish)

fish oil smells stronger but imo doesn't taste ALL that diff from flax

seed oil.

if you've been using flax seed oil for 2 years with no problems, that

makes me feel better. b

LOL!!. Gel caps are good for lotsa bad tasting stuff.

Re: Flax Seed Oil (or Hemp, or Fish)

there's also gel caps you can swallow without tasting the fish oil...

that way you only taste them when you burp. bahahahaha

Moderation in all things...I agree.

Re: Flax Seed Oil (or Hemp, or Fish)

i think you can reach a point where a person is just plain paranoid of

eating everything and anything. i think moderation is the key here,

not total avoidance or total consumption. if you were to avoid

anything that could be bad, you'd be avoiding a helluva lot of stuff,

and you're right--might as well starve to death.

How doe she know that? Does he visit the purification plants or does he do it

himself. How do we know we can trust him? Who CAN we trust for sure? There's so

many contraditions. I don't even trust myself on these things.

ostensibly fish oil is extracted through a filtration and purification

process, so it probably really is safe.

however, i think the whole mercury scare thing is completely overstated

to begin with, as are most " food scares " like apples and so forth. i

mean there is no degree of lunacy you can't take it to if you are of

the mind to do so. the big mercury risk, from my understanding, is

farmed salmon--so only eat wild salmon, and canned fish.

otherwise you are fine. my diet is very high in fish and it's good for

you. but since flax seed oil doesn't contain goitrogens (i guess only

fresh seed does), you can stay on the udo's choice oil and not have any

problems.
