Besides eating Maw’s home cooked Filipino fish dishes of tilapia, mackarel, pinaksiew, tinapas, bangus, etc., I’ve been taking a dietary supplement: 1,000 mg fish oil made from cold water, deep sea fish with Omega 3 by Leiner Health Products, which was bought earlier this year from our local drug store, CVS.
Eating anything fishy SMELLS. This means a person MUST take frequent showers because the fish oil makes its way to the pores of the skins and into the the air, right up the nostrils of sensitive olfactories. I know because I could smell the stuff on my person.
For example, Jane H. a former temporary worker from my former employer near Great America Theme Park in Santa Clara, CA, smelled like fish, EVERDAY! We Filipinos made fun among ourselves every time we work around that tall, Greek woman. The odor is overpowering!
So while trying to keep healthy has a price, makes sure the body odor is kept to a minimal. So this bottle of 100 softgel will expire in December 2009 and although I don’t wish to take this for my own good, I force myself whenever I remember, not religiously, though. It stinks!
