does anyone take fish oil pills?

i heard they're "really good" for you so i bought a small bottle (30ct) to try. do you guys actually feel any different or is it all in the head?

i also bought red wine extract pills, which is supposed to be a great antioxidant as well. anybody try these?

Same here. I take two fish oils a day, along with flaxseed (2), vitamin E (2) and a Vitamin B (1).

One a day for years now. The only thing I hate is belching a few minutes later. Awful taste.

Make sure you get quality stuff. In this case, your really do get what you pay for. I remember reading about a study where most of the generic or unknown name brand fish oil supplements carried a significant amount of mercury. I'll try to find it, but I personally use Optimum Nutrition fish oil pills 3 times daily. They were on sale at BodyBuilding.com I think 200 for $10.

I've never noticed a taste, but some smell more than others. Maybe they take it? I guess a girl on fish oil who queefs would give a new meaning to the term "fishy burp"
