I was wandering the aisles at Walmart mostly to get some ice free walking in on my crutches. I was also on the lookout for things I could use on my ketogenic journey. I ran across this bottle in the baking section with the cooking oils. It was $10 and change for a 16.9 oz bottle.

I’ll have to look for this, could be good added to BPC

This is the same brand of coconut oil that I buy, it’s really good quality. But, does this taste fishy? :grimacing:

I just opened and had a tsp with my fat soluable vitamins as I am on an extended fast. I could detect a very faint fish taste. I’m not sure if it would be noticable in BPC? I was prepared for it to be awful, it wasn’t objectionable at all.

I will try it in my coffee tomorrow.

I think it says it has omega 3, 6 and 9. It just markets the omega 3 part more on the packaging. I don’t see percentage breakdown of the different types of omega oils. I’d investigate this more. Because I’m not sure what they mean by “refined” salmon oil. Is it diluted in other non omega 3 oils?

I’ve always heard Omega 3 is where we become deficient, and our bodies cannot make it, which is why supplementation is good. Omega 6 is prevalent in butter, cheese, eggs, pork and beef products. Omega 9 is something our bodies can manufacture.

interesting…i usually take pause at the mention of ‘refined oil’ though.

Some refined oils are bad but some aren’t. I use refined coconut oil because I don’t like the taste of coconut in everything. The key (at least for coconut oil), is how they refine it. I don’t know anything about this particular oil though.

Interesting. The article from Authority Nutrition states that a diet higher in monounsaturated fats has improved insulin sensitivity and reduced inflammation compared with a diet of saturated fats. I have been enjoying high oleic Sunflower oil which was tested to have higher omega 9 (MUFA) than olive oil by a long shot. I plan to reduce my intake of coconut oil but will continue eating the fattier meats and yolks with saturated fats. Continue lots of fish for omega 3 and limit nuts and seeds with high omega 6:3 ratios. Macs are the best choice. Does this make sense?

May I ask at what Walmart’s you found this? I know the things I find at the Walmart’s in Gainesville Fl. is not always the same ones I find in Ludington, MI when I shop there.

Alma, MI Looks like the company has a website you can order from directly but I paid about a buck less than they get for it.

They make a pretty good peanut butter powder too…

I couldn’t find the Omega 3 stuff on Amazon.
