EDIT: Read the comments before following this advice!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fish Oil Supplements are highly recommended not only on the Zone Diet, but also by Crossfit. I’m finally prepared to make a recommendation for a supplier that meets my own exacting standards.<\/p>\n

Despite spending many hours searching and contacting suppliers in the UK, I eventually gave up trying to find a reliable UK supplier of properly and verifiably refined Fish Oil<\/strong> (Pharmaceutical Grade if you care for that term) to the proportions and quality levels as define in The Zone Diet. I didn’t want to go to the States as I expected shipping to be prohibitive and didn’t trust them to arrive basically.<\/p>\n

However I’ve found a US Fish Oil supplier that has the right product, publishes the quality reports, delivers within 10 days to the UK and most importantly, is cheap by most standards. I ordered 2 bottles of 120 capsules, at a strength which requires only 2 caps per day (2.5g of EPA\/DHA per day) which is 4 months supply, for less than \u00a324 including delivery, which works at a bargain \u00a31.40 for a weeks supply, <\/strong>or 20p a day if you prefer.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Compare this to the Holland & Barrett Fish Oil<\/a> at \u00a332 inc p&p for 55 days worth (at 9 caps per day for a matching EPA\/DHA dose) which is a vastly inferior product and works out 3x more expensive at \u00a34.07 per week. This is the Fish Oil I’m taking:<\/p>\n
