Flax vs.Fish oil

[Karna]

I am wondering if we add 1 tbsp of flax oil to the smoothies if instead would be ok to take fish oil pills. If so how many grams?

Hi Karna,
It's a direct substitution. One tablespoon fish oil for one tablespoon flax oil.
The number of capsules needed to equal one tablespoon will depend on the size of the caps you have. Check the nutrition information on the back to see if you can find the amount in each capsule.

BTW - I'm a fan of liquid fish oil and use it directly in my smoothies. Carlson's has a lemon flavored fish oil that tastes good and add a nice little 'something extra' to my smoothies.

Thank you! I looked at the grams per serving and figured it out.
