Flax and Fish Oil Pills

**GODstatus** · 10-17-2004, 09:01 PM

Would it be okay to take the pill forms of flax and fish oil for my pro/fat meals. The liquids are very pricey.

Also, what are some feasible amounts (gram wise) that I should take wqith say 40-50grams of protein.

dont see why it would be different......u could always just save your money and get canola oil......i usually add a tablespoon of that to my shakes

I always try and go with liquids, I feel it gets absorbed much better IMO, but if you must go with pills, I guess its better than not taking any flax at all..

Get the oil, forget the pills!

U realize to get like 15 grams of fat, instead of easily taking one tablespoon, you have to swallow 15+ pills?

If you think oil is expensive (and it's not) , wait until you go through a bottle of pills every 2 days. Good luck swallowing all those pills.
