 | EFA's Been looking more into diet the last couple of weeks, and from what I have read it would be benificial to add some EFA's in the form of omega 3 soft gels or something similar throughout the day. Just wanted to know what sort you's guy's take and how many a day, I know it probably depends on how much you are actually getting from whole foods, but my main fat source are eggs that's why I want to add something different into my diet. Any help would be great, cheers !!!  |

  | Re: EFA's EFA's are brilliant, IMO. How many you take depends on what your goals are. If your main source of protein is eggs (primarily whole), you'll be getting a lot of good fats from them. It wouldn't hurt for you to throw some in. I take about 8 a day, but many people take a lot more. I didn't take them for years & since taking them again, I can certainly tell I have a lot more energy. After speaking with Nytol, one of the moderators on this board, he told me he has his 2 year old daughter on them - I think he said she takes about 4 a day. Now that is fantastic. After hearing that from Nytol (because the guy knows his stuff), my 18 month old son has been on 2 a day for the past month. In short, get em' down ya' neck!

| Still on the first step - its huge!  | Re: EFA's I've been using a bottle of oil called Omega 369, I have a capful each morning with my shake. Contains what it says. Do you think this would be good enough or is there something I'm missing in something like say your regular soft gel?
