Hi,
Thanks for the info on running, I might wait a little time before working out again since I was really bad after the last string of workouts.
As far as the fish oil goes here is what I have been reading. I have taken flaxseed meal with yogurt (right nasty actually) and don't really know if I felt anything or not. I did try lecthin a few times and it made me kind of spacey. My brother(superior health in all regards) had the same problem with lecthin. He tries things because he works out a lot. The problem with flaxseed oil is, correct me if I am wrong, is that it can be converted into EPS which is the good thing in omega 3's. The percentage may be from 20 to 30 percent from what I have read.
Here is what I have taken, I bought it from Walmart, 3 one gram capsules is what I started with and it contains 180 mg of EPS, and 120 mg of (DHL?). I have upped that to 4 a day and today will take 5. It may be you just are not taking large enough dose to feel anything. A bottle of 60 was about $3.50 so it is a great deal and is worth the cost. I have seen that 2 grams of EPS is recommended, but alas we all are different. Good luck! I had some salty fries for dinner just for good measure.
