/fit/... what is the best fish oil overall? I heard that cod liver oil is most likely the most beneficial one, but I'm looking for other opinions. So, cod liver oil or omega 3 oil or salmon oil or some other oil? Liquid, or gel pills? Which brand has the best/cheapest stuff?

you want whatever has the most dha/price.
you can't just say fish oil because not all fish oil pills are created equally.

bleh, if you want your omega 3's get flaxseed. I used to take fish oil tablets but hated tasting fish every time i had to burp. the flaxseed tastes a lot better and does the same thing as all the fish oils

CHEAP SHIT

and your opinion is a pile of uninformed bullshit. the n-3, ALA, metabolizes to EPA, which then gets metabolized to DHA. However, this conversion does not result in sufficient amounts for people on a well balanced diet. Women can convert EPA to DHA better than males. This is why fish oil with high dha is better, especially for men. Im not gonna bother explaining the difference in the two because google exists for your reading pleasures.

For vegans, who eat absolutely no animal foods, take in zero dha, so the uptake of epa and dha will be higher for them.

and im am NOT saying flax is worthless. its got lignans and fiber and other shit that fish oil wont have, but n-3's are better supplemented though fish oil
