When taking fish-oil, try drinking some pineapple juice after, your burp will smell great! I’ve been taking squalene for quite sometime and this is what I do.

if you want to avoid fish-burps altogether, you should really try eating chia seeds. chia seeds have 8 times the amount of omega-3 than salmon and are the richest known source of omega-3 found anywhere. chia seeds are a whole grain that not only contain large amounts of omega-3, they are also loaded with antioxidants, fiber, protein, calcium and more. if you want to learn more about the amazing health benefits of chia seeds, you should really check out http://www.TheChiaSeed.com

The other thing you can do is go to your local GNC and get the Deodorized fish oil capsules. I have been taking them for several months now and have only had twice where my burp tasted fishy, but those two times I had taken them without food. So take with food and with the deodorized it’s a great non-fishy way to get your Omega-3s. Best of luck!

Paul’s advice on “If you won’t eat it…..” is great!

On the moldy bread, I use to cringe at my sister scrapping mold off of tortillas, etc and feeding her KIDS!

Great Post.

The advice to coat one’s body with fake tanning chemicals, and call it safe seems irresponsible. If you won’t eat it, it shouldn’t go on your skin, is good advice, as anything on your skin typically soaks into your body. No mention is made of eating berries for at least thirty days before going out in the sun to get the kind of protection that your skin really needs. To respond to the mention of skin cancer, although I believe the sun block products are toxic, I KNOW that eating apricot kernels (or other sources of laetrile) can prevent cancer, also adequate vitamin d and alkalizing your body chemistry can make you worry free.

Concerning the moldy bread… It is actually good to eat some of it once in a while. It contains an antibiotic called quinine, which unless you’re alergic to it won’t hurt your wellbeing. In fact during wars in the past especially WWI and WWII in Europe the soldiers have eaten molded bread so that they won’t catch any serious diseases like cholera or the black death… so when it comes down to it being too careful about what you eat might not be that healthy. However, moldy meat fruits etc. aren’t recommended at all, so don’t try those…
Now as I think of it, there was a passage in the Bible where Jesus says that it doesn’t matter how clean the food you consume is, more important is what comes out of your mouth. God bless!

Q: How risky is just one visit to a tanning salon?

A: A. Bernard Ackerman, MD, is an exceptionally distinguished dermatologist and one of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject of skin cancer. In 1999, after a long career in academic medicine, he founded and became director of the Ackerman Academy of Dermatopathology in New York.
Largely because of his leadership and high standards, Dr. Ackerman’s institution quickly became the world’s largest training center in the field of dermatopathology. (Dermatopathology is the study of the disease processes that affect the skin. It involves detailed knowledge of the microscopic anatomy of the skin’s structure in health and disease.) Dr. Ackerman and his six associates examine more than 100,000 skin specimens and do more than 4,000 consultations per year. Dr. Ackerman has published 625 research papers and his list of honors and awards includes this year’s Master Award, given to one person a year by the American Academy of Dermatology.
What makes this accomplished scientist particularly interesting is not just his distinguished career in academic medicine but the fact that he challenges some of the dermatology profession’s most cherished dogmas. According to an article in the New York Times (July 20, 2004), at age 67, Dr. Ackerman “continues to teach and write, and also to ask for data and question his field’s conventional wisdom.”
“The field is just replete with nonsense,” he told the Times. For instance:
Dr. Ackerman does not believe that the link between melanoma and sun exposure (a central dogma of dermatology) has been proven. He himself is deeply tanned and unafraid to expose his body to the sun.
He does not believe that sunburns, even the painful or blistering kind sustained early in life, necessarily lead to cancer. While some studies do show a small association, he says, others show none. Even those studies that show some such correlation “disagree on when the danger period for sunburns is supposed to be,” writes Gina Kolata, author of the New York Times article. Taken as a whole, “the research is inconsistent and fails to make the case.”
He doesn’t buy the argument that sunscreens protect against melanoma. He points to a recent editorial in an orthodox journal, Archives of Dermatology, which also concludes that there is scant evidence to support this crucial dogma (Bigby 2004).
Finally, while the incidence of basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma have been shown to be closely linked to lifetime sun exposure, Dr. Ackerman challenges the tenet that the more intense a person’s exposure to the sun, the greater their risk of melanoma. He believes that the data for this also is not compelling. Although we are told that the incidence of melanoma increases in populations that live nearer the equator, the correlation is not that simple. Epidemiological data on melanoma, says Dr. Ackerman, are imprecise and inaccurate. The data simply “cannot demonstrate cause and effect.”
