snousleA recent comment reminded me of something I wanted to mention.
I'm hearing a lot about people taking fish oil capsules these days. I think it would be a good idea to mention that I had the unfortunate experience of fucking someone that was taking them and not being able to get the smell of dead fish out of my crotch for, like, a week. Or so it seemed, anyway. And of course because his body was saturated in the stuff he couldn't detect it himself. Countless "fish" jokes ensued...
I don't know if this is a general problem or if he just had a particularly bad experience. But finding a friend who will sniff your butthole and tell you if it stinks is a great way to bond. ;-)
More generally, has it really been determined that fish oil capsules improve your health? The problem with these interventions is that researchers first associate eating fish with better health, then infer that it's probably the fish oil that did it, and finally assume that processed fish oil products will have the same effect as actual fish. There are a lot of things that can go wrong on the path from fresh seafood to little gelatin capsules.
Maybe this question is well settled in the medical community but I'm kind of skeptical.
