![]() | Where and which fat (oils) to buy. Hey, I'm trying to source some good fats for my protein/fat meals and have no idea where to buy concentrated fish oil/flax oil. I've had a look around Tescos and can't find any.. I was in sainsburys yesterday and saw some flax seed oil, but i've read bad things about the omega 3/6 ratios, so was going to buy just the fish oil, but from where? Holland and Barrats is the only place i can think of that would sell that type of stuff. Are their products ok, any in particular fish oils you could recommend? Thanks, Ross. |

Sorry to jump in here, but with lack of diet knowledge and seeing we are already on this....why do I want fat oils in my diet ( benefits ) and when or how do I apply ( at which point do I take them or add them to food or take directly as a supplement ) them...? Hear alot about this but not sure why it's necessary...Thanks

Main basic benefits are things like, hormone regulation, cell membrane structure and function, satiety (through CCK), energy (when needed), slowing down absorptions of foods etc... Loads more but they're just the few I remember.. Can add them in anywhere mate, from nuts, to tuna, steak, oils etc - but try and limit fat intake as much as possible both pre and post-workout for one of the reasons I mentioned above. Fats slow down the secretion of hydrochloric acid - which is whats partly resposible for breaking down food in the gut. So would go against the whole point of taking a fast acting protein like whey after a workout. |
