Fish Oil

Posted on 08. Nov, 2008 by Deb in Just...an Observation

I twittered about it briefly tonight, but I am supposed to be taking Omega-3, which is really just fish oil.  The last few weeks, I have simply slipped away from the regular schedule of taking care of myself doing things like vitamins and exercise, but that has got to change.   Today, after I got my nails done, I went to GNC to get my Women’s Active Pack as well as their triple strength Omega 3′s.     With traveling, taking a bunch of vitamins is harder, so the “packs” that GNC has available are good to pack, but bringing the big old bottle of fish oil is too bulky, so I caved.  I also bought one of those little pill divider things to keep them in, which makes me feel incredibly OLD.

So, what is taking Omega-3 all about for me?  Well, winter is approaching, and I have dry skin which is worse in the winter.  I also have deal with high blood pressure and high cholesterol.  The doctor recommended some super-duper PRESCRIPTION Omega-3′s, but I balked at the need for a prescription for a dietery supplement.  I am supposed to take three of them, along with an asprin, a multi-vitamin, and calcium.

And on that note, I am going to BED.  Early flight tomorrow morning……
