Question: Uh oh!.!.!.!. flaxseed oil AND cod liver oil!?!!?
I just bought and have taken flaxseed oil and cod liver oil in pill form!. Since they both have fatty acids, is that too much to take!? Or is it safe to take both pills at the same time!?Www@Youqa@Cn

I have read that getting your omega3 from both plant and animal sources is a good thing!. I have read that flax seed has omega 6 which would be bad!. Ideally you are trying to equalize or improve the ratio of omega 3 and the excess amounts of omega 6 that we are getting from all the unnatural vegetable oils!.
I personally take cod liver oil every morning and evening!. I have ground flax seed in my protein shakes or sprinkled on my eggs!. I like the fiber!.Www@Youqa@Cn

I would space them out during the day just for absorbtion gains!. I would also recommend the Fish oil at night, since for me, it thins my blood and makes me sleepy as all get out!. (i discovered the hard way after taking some each morning and yawning all though the work day) I try to keep to keep my DHA at 340-700 mg a day but if you good it - of course you will see people taking a TABLESPOON of cod liver oil a day!.Www@Youqa@Cn
