The smaller pill is for the baby to take.

That’s ridiculous, a baby in utero doesn’t have the dexterity of fingertips to separate the larger pill from the smaller pill

Maybe your baby doesn't. My baby is already doing the little coin through the fingers thing

If the pregnant wife takes the pregnant pills would that be a 3 health bars situation?

Fish oil makes my farts lethal.

My understanding is that a lot of fish oil on the market is old or low quality.

That’s why I always juice my own fish at home.

Always always always microwave your fish plates when you are having leftovers, nothing smells quite like microwaved fish

It is. And when they refine it it removes a lot of the natural vitamins so they add them back in. Seems kinda silly to me.

Same with avocado oil.

Yep there's a list of the few that have been shown to be actual pure avocado oil (most add other oils) and I get one particular one that has been tested as pure and quality.

You also get the fish urps all day --not quite burps, just little bubbles of fishiness coming up your esophagus all day

I've found that krill oil or the vegan omega 3s & 6s algae pills are much better

Probably something that can mix between the oil and the powder and they don't want it to until you eat it

but those pockets of air -- they're going to give the worst fucking pill-burps...

39
OutAndABoot•

That looks like a single burp of air for the entire batch.

i get pill-burps every single time i take a fish oil pill with a bubble in it, and the smell/taste is so bad that it makes me shudder. burps dont just chill in your belly until theyre finally big enough to go out and see the world, theyre a gaseous substance

My cvs brand fish oil gives me mildly minty burps

Fun fact! With capsules that are 2 pieces you can usually smush them together more than they did in the factory. Maybe you can do that in some way that it pushes the bubble out? (If it was yoing to work at all I would think you would have the bigger price on the top and push the smaller piece into it)

They make vegan fish oil pills from algae and there is no fish taste :)

Surprised nobody mentioned to make sure you take them with meals. Works for me and I have to take a bunch of pills every morning. Omega 3, B12, vitamin D, and prescription meds. Completely fixed this issue for me.

Girlfriend just got some of these. Apparently there’s two capsules so that the capsule containing the supplements can bypass the stomach and absorb efficiently in the small intestine. Outer capsule dissolves in the stomach.
