Reddit reviews Life Extension Super Omega-3 EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans & Olive Extract, 120 Softgels

WANTS:

• Lululemon Boogie Shorts. They are tiny, but I finally have the confidence to wear them and I absolutely love them. So comfortable and allow for big range of motion. The roll down ones are my favorites. Drooling over the pretty blue pair and the herringbone pair.
  
• Knee Sleeves. My sister is getting me a set.. really excited!
  
• Fabletics Doon Sports Bras. I have one and it's always the first one I wear after I do laundry, which means it's my favorite :)
  
• Outdoor Voices Hoodie. I won an Outdoor Voices tank top in a competition and the fabric is just like butter. I signed up for their mailing list, which gives you a 20% code, so I may end up getting this for myself eventually. They are $$ like Lululemon, but made in the USA.
  
  WHAT I WOULD GIVE:
  
  
• Mesh Shoe Bag. So nice when you have a pair of lifters.
  
• No Slip Hair Ties. My absolute favorite. My hair actually stays in a ponytail when I use these, even while doing stuff like jumping rope!
  
• Mary Jane's Pain Relief Salve. Not exactly legal in all US states (yet), but this stuff works better than any salve I have ever used.
  
• Arnica Gel. I put this on any bruising I get from the barbell after a workout and the bruises heal much faster!
  
• Life Extension Fish Oil. My favorite fish oil ever.

I take Life Extension Foundation Omega-3 because I trust LEF implicitly, I wanted the best money could buy, and I sense there's a scientific justification for including olive oil extract. However, you've inspired me to do a little more research, and it looks like I could totally be saving a ton of money by using a less expensive brand without sacrificing the quality of the omega-3.. I could even double my dose and save a lot of money.

Check out this gem of an Amazon review...

I have read that 2-3g of omega-3 oil is a 'theraputic' dose, used clinically for the amelioration of some cardiac, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory disorders. I think the more omega-3 you take, the better, but I would hesitate to exceed 2g without consulting my doctor. According to researchers at Oregon State University, contrary to the general perspective that more is better, "excess amounts of omega-3 fatty acids can alter immune function sometimes in ways that may lead to a dysfunctional immune response to a viral or bacterial infection".

I go for a fish oil that rates well with IFOS. Rancid fish oil is worse for you then not taking fish oil.

I like this one, take about 2-4 a day.

Here's what I am looking at:

• Multivitamin (LEF 2-Per-Day Capsules)
  
• Fish Oil (LEF)
  
• Vitamins D + K (LEF)
  
  I will probably pick up some cheap 5-HTP and Rhodiola form NOW just to try out.
  
  I am wondering if I will be getting too much Vitamin D from this as the multi has 2,000UI and the D+K has 5,000UI... The multi doesn't have K and that D+K supplement looks pretty good, especially with the added Iodine... does this combo look like I might be overdoing it?
