20+ fish oil caps per day too much?

[sensamilia]

Ive been taking like a lil over 20 1g fish oil caps per day, im just wondering wether there might be something wrong with that? I eat allot of eggs and whole milk so i just thought taking in high amounts of Omega 3 is probably a gud idea.
Ur thoughts?

A 213g tin of wild Alaskan red salmon contains 21.3g of fish oil = 21 fish oil capsules and there isn't a health warning on the tin!

Therefore, 20 fish oil caps/day should be perfectly safe. If you notice that you bleed for longer when you cut yourself (shaving, say), then cut down on fish oil supps. Cheers, Nige.

Can you explain why blood thins with fish oil intake?

Blood doesn't get thinner. Omega-3 fats reduce platelet aggregation. See http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/reprint/166/5/608.pdf

Dunno. Where does he post?

 

[DaMayor]

He used to post here a while back. I've just returned myself, so I am not sure exactly what happened to him. Your conveyance of information/style somewhat reminds me of him. Although he could be quite the horse's arse from time to time, LOL.

Thanks for your input.

Robboe used to be TCD used to TheChickenDaddy.

I haven't seen him online in a long time. Last I saw he was working with TwinPeaks for DesignerSupps. Most of his last posting was either at MM or AM.
