I know the benefits of fish oil for joints is beneficial - but I can't bear the thought of swallowing Fish Oil!

Sainsburys do a great multi omega oil (3,6 &9) in their healthy section. you can just take a tablespoon a day (tastes nutty) or sprinkle it on salad. Research shows that we are too obsessed with omega three and actually need a balnce of all three oils for optimum benefit. Also with this oil you get only oil without all the nasties in capsules. Happy health.

Flax and hemp seed oils are excellent sources of your Omega-3 and Omega 6 polyunsaturated fats. I wouldn't want to eat fish oil either!

Flaxseed oil. I suggest capsules. You can buy bottled flaxseed oil but it is very bitter and gross. It looks like olive oil so one day I used some in a salad dressing. BLEAGH!

At the health food place up the street from me, Grape Seed Oil is the new hotness. Supposed to be good for almost everything.

I think flax seed oil works in a similar way
