How did our ancestors survive without all of these pills?
I like the paleo-supplement diet. I only take vitamin pills and supplements that would have been found in the wild 50,000 years ago...

They ate right, just like the local farmers, which most passed in late 80s to 90s unless they got trapped in machinery. I dont cook, and eat schit(Hoss's, Chili's, McDonalds, Taco Bell, KFC, local steak houses and small mom and pops) and I smoke.

I guess I don't understand the aversion to fish oil. People say "eat well" and that would include wild salmon and fish like sardines with lots of Omega 3's, several times a week. Not everyone can do that, and fish oil is just the concentrated stuff that's good for you from those fish. So yes, eat right, exercise right, sleep right. But it's not an either/or proposition, why not take fish oil too? Here's a good cheap source: http://www.allstarhealth.com/de_p_r...ar2dnszk3frPdcTOGK9JDtTEhgc7RRoC6M_w_wcB

Reviews on Amazon folks said they get the fish burps with it. Guess I could freeze em first, but someone did the math and said the oil I got was cheaper oil vs cap. But this brand does have a good amount of the good stuff. If thats in 2 pill serving 2 morning 2 night wouldnt be too bad. 2 months worth for 'round $20

If you want to lower the bad stuff in your blood just eat a handful of raw walnuts. They do a very good job and in no way taste like fish bait,with or without peanut butter.  The walnuts can be found in the cooking isle at the store. You can take them everywhere and they won't offend anyone but the almond growers.

I get the occasional fish burps but they don't bother me. Hell, I've burped up much worse than that, LOL!

I eat walnuts and almonds daily. Thing is though, the Omega 3's in those are ALA, not DHA/EPA. You really need DHA/EPA in your diet too.

eat a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast, a salad for lunch, a peice of fruit or two during the day and some broiled chicken or lean red meat and lots of veg's for dinner. exercise 30-60 min a day doing cardio or weights and all your numbers will be fine and you will be a middle-aged stud like me who can outrun and out work people half my age.
or spend big bucks on magic pills that are made from polluted fish parts that were dragged off the processing floor and call it a day.

I take fish pills. I don't even remember why, but my doc said go for it. Hope it wasn't to improve memory.
I don't mind the fish burps. Rarely get them as far as I can recall. I probably don't even notice.

Omega-3s have been proven to be a benefit. By your numbers, you need to talk to yout MD about some statins. Are you operating under the long debunked myth that dietary cholesterol has an effect on blood cholesterol, or the long debunked myth that blood cholesterol has anything to do with cardiovascular disease, or a combination of the two?  Oh Gawd, here we go again. Would it help to mention that statins have cardio protect benefits that go beyond lowering Cholesterol? Probably not. It has a generalized anti-inflammatory effect, which would benefit the heart, but then no anti-inflammatory would be needed absent a high starch diet to begin with, and then there are the harmful effects of statins to contend with, such as the suppression of co-q-10, and who knows what else.

I'm speaking of hens that spend the day on a natural pasture, like mine do. Tests have shown that hens raised in this way reliably produce eggs with about .66 grams of Omega 3. That's triple the amount found in standard grocery story eggs. This is due to the consumption of natural wild foods such as bugs, grubs, seeds, and wild greens.

I used the cheap fish oil pills until one day I opened a new Wallmart bottle that had spoiled. When I took it back I warned them not to open it indoors.
Was a long time before I wanted any fish of any kind.
Now I use MegaRed Krill oil with no problems except the cost.
So I have switched to MegaRed extra strength 500mg every other day and CoQ10 on the other days.

Id try the Megared, again, if there was actual proof that it is more efficient in deliver and strength. But from my reading, there just isnt enough proof for me. It definitely doesnt have near the EPA/DHA as the Carlsons I bought. I really wish there was significant proof about krill oil, cause the Megared was easy and no taste.
