Yep still fine man :)

My girlfriend has been taking them aswell and no negative effects.

One day I had a tiny bit of a fishy taste from a burp a couple of hours later but that's only because I was running late for work, didn't eat breakfast and only had the tablet.

It might work better if taken in conjunction with Musashi Inositol

Inositol and EPA/DHA collectively strengthen the myelin sheaths of cells.

And Plan C is to also introduce Coenzyme Q10 whilst working out.

I can't say that the above is the answer for you; but at least it's a process of elimination.

My order turned up late last week of the same brand Phil got, i did the premium though.

So far only taking 1 per day and I'm not getting any major issues with reflux and I get it bad with other tablets.

Very impressed and I'm feeling quite good at the moment. Will report back in a couple of weeks.

I cannot recall any info that says that fatty acid chains are altered deleteriously during the canning process.

Experiment:- try omega 3 at optimal doses for say 3 months then stop > then check a couple of weeks later if your functioning falls off somewhat?

My question was more related to the content of Omega 3, i.e. Is the tuna can a suitable daily dosage?

Experiment sounds good but OCD won't let me do that lol, it'll pickup on some psychosomatic placebo response even if I'm in the control group :P

On the plus side Tiger Balm works wonders for me...

What benefits should I be looking for (bad experimental bias here) when introducing Omega 3 to the diet?

Curiously, if I'm eating a 95gm can of tuna each day, will this give me enough Omega 3 or should I be supplementing with tablets?

My 195gram can of tuna in olive oil contains:

32mg EPA

155MG DHA

Olive oil contains omega 3's, and its ~81% tuna, 19% olive oil.

An omega 3 capsule contains a lot more than that, tuna is not a fatty fish, salmon is :)

Ideally you should be balancing your omega 6 to omega 3 ratio, although I've never known how much omega 6 I'm getting through my diet so I've been taking a small amount of fish oil.

EDIT: Possibly irrelevant but one of the benefits of omega 3 is lower inflammation levels. However, I've found circumin much more effective than anything else for that, its got my tendonitis under control :)

Must report in... Getting slight reflux issues with the Xtend life product, in certain situations.

The only time I do is if I take one soon as I get outta bed. So not having eaten for 8-9hrs.

Long as I have even a small amount of food, its totally fine.

So quite impressive overall

Good to gear man. I've noticed similar. If I take one before breakfast I get a couple of burps after an hour or so.

After breakfast or with any food it's all good.

I'm onto my second bottle now. Got the second one a lot cheaper due to their loyality program thing :)

I get mine in less than 15mins after taking it :D

But ye, overall quite good. Not sure if it's just the oil or the fact im coming off a pretty hefty illness but im certainly feeling quite good the past week since I've started taking it

So what's the deal with fish oil tablets? Been thinking of buying some... I eat about 180g canned tuna a week - would that be sufficient enough to not have to supplement with fish oil tablets?

What brand should I get if I do need some? They will need to be small tablets, I currently don't swallow tablets because my mind say's no haha.

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
