Its funny because the bottle only recommends 1-2 capsules per day which is far from the 1tbp recommendation on the flax seed oil liquid form.
Is it safe to take in lets say 5 capsules at once before i sleep along with my protein shake then about 8 in the morning when i wake up along with my breakfast? |
This depends on your macro's in your diet. You need to fit it in your fats ratio of nutrients. Whatever your amount is, before bed is a great time. It will help slow digestion, and the body metabolizes fats well at night, as well as
unsaturated fats have no impact on insulin. So, if your diet macros call for instance 10% fat of a 3000 calorie diet, that would be 600 calories from fat for the day. This is approximately 34 gr. of fat for the day. Fit this amount in. 3 tbsp. for instance or in your case 30 capsules spread out at 3 meals. As athletes we need higher ranges of Omega 3's. The typical diet is very heavily laden toward Omega 6's anyway, and we need to bring that ratio to 1:1 at the very least. For athletes, a 3:1 ratio may even be better.
