Re: Anybody Take Flaxseed Or Fish Oil Softgels???
HHHMMMMM. BG doesn't know if he should be giving any Super body tips, but it's the least he could do for his fans on this day in particular.:gj:
Every single person on this forum should be at the very least taking fish oil because of the EFA's(essential fatty acids). Notice the word "essential". This is a fat that your body needs to function correctly. It also has many benefits that a lot of people have problems with. Fish oil is great for dry skin. If you skin is dry in the winter and your lips chap easily, they won't any more if you take enough. It works great.
BG did take Flaxseed oil every day for years, but not any more. BG read somewhere that it wasn't the greatest thing for guys to take because it's bad for the prostate. Since most guys have an issue with this later in life, and Poppa Gunns did, BG decided it was better he not risk it.
There is one other "top secret" thing BG takes every day. CLA is another great product for EFA's. BG takes this along with Fish oil every single day and look at the results.:rofl:
Actually BG will tell you this. Both of these products will help you lose fat. BG is 100% sure of this fact because every single time he runs out and he's too cheap to buy it until the beginning of the month at GNC....he gets chubby cheeks and can pinch a 1/4 inch. Trust BG...it's true.:tears: The first place BG puts weight on is in those dang cheeks:taz: so BG knows what is working.
The only problem BG sees now is that supposedly they're finding DDT in fish oil.:rage::rage:
Now everyone that's not taking it..... go out and buy some. If you don't have nicer skin, and lose a few pounds, BG will give you your money back.....but first you need to send him the money.:D
Re: Anybody Take Flaxseed Or Fish Oil Softgels???
I had no problems with fish burps, thankfully as I do not like the smell or taste of 99% of seafood.
My new question is: How much does everyone personally take of each?????

hmm while I agree with most of what you said CLA does not have a very good track record as far as body comp is concerned so I think money would be better spent on just fish oil. :cool:
The dose needs to be really high
Adequate Efficacious Dosing (Volume of Distribution):
150-170 pounds: 8-10 grams
170-200 pounds: 10-12 grams
200-230 pounds: 12-14 grams
> 240 pounds: expensive lol
and studdies seem to show if your obese you may notice something with CLA at a high dose but in already lean subjects the results are minimal at best.

this is going to depend on your fatty fish intake but here is a rough guideline
Adequate Efficacious Dosing (Volume of Distribution):
<170 pounds: 2 grams combined EPA + DHA
170-200 pounds: 3 grams combined EPA + DHA
> 200 pounds: 4 grams combined EPA + DHA
most peoples FO contains 300mg EPA/DHA per 1000mg FO
I personally take 3 caps per day.
Re: Anybody Take Flaxseed Or Fish Oil Softgels???
Well I am like 270-280 lbs so it is safe to say I am not taking CLA if it is expensive...
My bottle says (In 2 soft gels):
Fish Oil Concentrate 2400 mg
Omega - 3 Fatty Acids (EPA, DHA and other Omega - 3) 720 mg
Why does it have 2 different numbers? If I go by the 2,400 mg and I take 4 a day (Bottle says 2-4 a day) then I will be at 4.8 grams a day. If I go by the 720 number and take 4 pills I would only be at 1.44 grams.

Hmm, not sure. I would do the 2,400 mg and take 4 caps, I think the guidelines are the total mg per cap but I will look into this. Im curious now lol, im going to talk to the person who set those guidlines.
and here is a good read on some studdies with CLA
