Anybody Take Flaxseed Or Fish Oil Softgels???
I take flaxseed oil softgels. I wanted to get fish oil but I heard that it can make you burp a lot and you can taste fish. I do not like seafood so that wouldn't work for me. Anybody else take either of them?

I take fish oils every day
These are them

I burped for the first couple days, then it stopped. I have also just started taking them at night to bypass any possible taste.

I currently take L-Glutamine and Flaxseed/Fish oil daily before and after workouts with many others added in for recovery and joint lubrication(arthritis,baseball injury)

You experience any problems with taking the fish and hlaxseed oils? I take animal flex for my joints and stuff. I take L-Glutamine too after my work out. Good stuff

No problems at all, when i dont take it my shoulder injury from baseball will act up if i dont take it. And i dont burp any extra either and when i do it tastes like the drink im drinking not fish.

No heartburn or anything here
I take 2 at night, but was taking 1 in the morning and one at night previously. I did burp like I said for a few days until it stopped, definitely fishy.
I take both at night and am perfectly fine, and Im prone to heartburn.
Serving size is 2 a day I believe. I talked to the company and the owner takes like 8 a day....dont know the reason why.
I like em

I take Fish Oil and have never had any problems with fish burps or heartburn. I've taken the softgels and the ones with the special coating to supposedly prevent the fish burps, and have never had an issue with either. I would try a small bottle and see if its to your liking.

IMO fishoil > flaxoil. I take 3 softgels a day (costco brand) with food and really have no problems. I have heard you can freeze them and you wont have the burps.
Fish oil is higher in DHA and EPA where flax is higer in ALA. most of the studdies on brain and heart health are on DHA and EPA.
here is a good read with some studdies.

i saw some fish oil pills somewhere that said "NO FISH BURPS!" on them, so if you're worried about that, i would look into it.
as for flax, i buy a bag of bulk flax seeds, and grind them into a powder in my magic bullet blender. i keep the powder in a container in the refrigerator, and every morning when i make my DELICIOUS fruit smoothie, i just throw in a bunch of flax seed dust.

IMO Id get the highest quality stuff you can find, which is where my searching ended me, at the Xtend life stuff.
The burps dont happen with everybody, and like me, even if they do, they can stop.
That or just take em at night like I have been doing.
Sure you could go out and find some eccentric coated stuff, or "no burps", but do some research into them, see how high of quality they are.
Get the highest quality stuff you can, and find out how taking them works best for you.
Just my 2 pennies
