Anon, one question I just have to ask. During all that time when you were eating rancid, encapsulated, extracted fish oil, did it ever occure to you to just eat more fish, maybe take up fishing as a hobby?
Well, I guess you could make the same argument for multivitamins. Why do people take them, when they should just eat healthier?
Apparently, the concentration of omega 3s present in the fish oil capsules is greater than you would get if you just had fish for dinner. I believe it is extracted and refined from salmon eggs. So I guess if you are wealthy enough to eat caviar every day, go for it.
I also believe that even people who eat fish regularly may still sometimes take fish oil capsules. Fish oil, like any other vitamin, is a supplement, not a replacement.
Doesn't matter for me either way. I don't take the stuff, since it didn't agree with me.
But if I could afford to eat sushi every day and have a more japanese diet, I'd love to. Although I would probably miss the beef. Actually, I probably wouldn't be able to stomach fish
every single day. I can't eat the same of
anything every single day, although I did come close with hawaiian pizza one time.
