What's your fish oil brand?

"You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation."
-Plato

Above: Loren "LJ" Jerlow was a judge this past Sunday, and boy did he do a great job! Thanks for volunteering at the event, LJ, and representing 808 well.  Events like this past weekend's could not be successful without the help of the many organizers, volunteers, and judges.

Day 4 of the 50-day Paleo Challenge: don't forget to take your fish oil!
My favorite brands are Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega, Pure Pharma Omega-3, and Barlean's.  I like to purchase mine online, but lately I've been bulk ordering the Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega, so let me know if you ever want in on my order.

Question of the day: What's your favorite brand of fish oil? Where do you get your fish oil from?

    I use the Costco brand also, because of the price. I use 4 capsules 3x's/Day.

    Yes! Awesome job and many thanks to those that helped out at that event to make it a huge success! Cool pic of LJ!

    I had fun today at the afternoon classes, what a WOD!

    FISH OIL ANSWER: Nordic Naturals for me when I want to stay in tip-top shape, but Carlson's liquid or capsule form is good for me too.

    Oh... and to answer the question about liquid and capsule fish oil: I have not been good with liquid fish oil. I tried it once, the Carlson's brand, but can't stomach the texture.
