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.

i use Triple Strength Fish Oil from GNC

1 a day, dont see many noticeable results, but I didnt when I was taking 6 a day of another brand either.

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.

  • 3 weeks later...

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.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
