Does this actually help with your joints, to keep them unstiff or lose/ healthy?

Omega 3 is where its at.

If I go a week without using it, I feel it. So I'm a believer in it working.

I use flaxseed oil capsules. Yes, I do think it is a good supplement to take. Hemp seed oil is nice as a salad dressing too.

I was tempted to change my supplement from Cod Liver Oil to omega 3 oil as I heard it was better. Anyone care to explain the difference please?

Cheers

U need equal amounts of omega 3 & 6. Just consuming omega 3 by its self is not very good for the brain. Any healthy oils are good for your joints. Cod Liver oil contains a lot of vitiman D so dont over do it (Its fine in the winter). If you're going to consume supplements in the summer months id choose fish oil over cod liver oil.
