Fish oil caps are better than all of those. Not the cod liver oil unless you live in cold weather climate, then cod oil would be fine.

Saturated fat if it's True Real Butter. Trans fat, Sat Fat & mono if it's Margarine
No bodybuilder diet should have either butter or margarine IMO.

No saturated fat IS NOT and EFA. Essential fats are fats that your body cannot produce. I think you have it backwards. You need UNSAT and less SAT and NO TRANS FAT.

Fish oil is EPA/DHA. Flax must convert it and it does so very poorly. It's good to have a combo of omega 3's so having mostly fish oil with some flax is better. Flax provides omega 6 as well but as far as omega 3's, fish oil is the best Originally Posted by TrojanMan60563
