    Glad it helped you out man, you are one of the reasons I decided to throw this together. Like I said, so so much more I could say but rather address it if people have direct questions for me here.

    great read bino, extremely helpful.

    so you don't recommend completely cutting seed oil sources out of one's diet it looks like? Because I've still been taking flax oil and seeds as an unsaturated fat and for fiber, which should still be acceptable, right?

    As for the fish oil, I've found a few different price variants on the stuff, including big differences between pill and liquid form. Saw one liq bottle at the store the other day which had 36 teaspoon servings for $12 by *****works, and some other company was selling a bottle about the same size that was 'more concentrated' ***** 3s for almost $30. Along the lines of protein powders, what quality fish oil should i be looking for? thanks again for the info

    I wouldnt take seed oils on there own, but there are benefits to consuming the actual seeds, or grinding them fresh and consuming them.

    In terms of purely bodybuilding I would cut them out. BUT...for overall health benefits and people who want/need extra fiber etc or even a healthy snack to give your kids I often recommend people take 1-2 tbsp ground flax (grind yourself) mix with some pure apple sauce (for the pectin, as it is less irritating form of fiber than psyllium) and eat it as a snack prior to or with your meals.

    But for me I consume mainly nut and fish oils, olive as well.

    For ths fish oils just look at the EPA and DHA content, you want it as high as possible basically but I would look for at least 50% combined EPA and DHA of the total oil concentration. So 500mg of a 1000mg oil cap.

    I use liquid fish oil for night time as well and its much more expensive than caps for me so I only take it once a day. Just make sure it is molecularly distilled.
