Hi Liz,

 

As I don't live in USA I can't tell you what shop, but I know that UDO's is the brand name for an all-blend oil. A good health food store should sell it, otherwise do a search on the internet for it.

 

You take it internally - two tbs per day. You can mix it in your food as I do for my son, or I mix it in a smoothie in the mornings for myself.

Most healthfood stores carry it. During the summer I take two tablespoons a day, and during the winter I take four.

 

Love,

I ordered Flax oil last week and came close to ordering a bottle of

UDO's oil.

 

If one used enough ground flax seed, would he still need some flax oil?

 

On most days, I use both. I have not seen any information on the number of

ounces

of seed to equal an ounce of oil.

 

Possibly, if one eats enough seeds and nuts, and little meat, he might not

need as much flax oil or flax seed.

 

For the last few months I have been using the Omega 3 enriched eggs. While

this is not a solution within itself, the eggs seem to be of higher quality

than the other eggs available.

 

When I add two of the Omega 3 eggs to my drink, then two tbs flax oil, and

two tbs of ground flax seed, I wonder what I have?

 

Maybe too much Omega 3 ? Has anyone ever died from too much Omega 3?

 

Hopefully not.

What's the difference in Omega 3 from fish oil and Flax seed?

Dear Wayne,

 

I personally believe that Udo's Oil is a better choice for the

average person not fighting cancer.

 

It comes from multiple sources and is balanced in Omega 3 vs. Omega 6.

 

I believe in the more variety in oils the better, but in balance.

 

Even if a person took Udo's Oil I think that they should still try

and include other Oils like fish oils, fish liver oils, nuts, small

amounts found in our vegetables in our diet, seeds, etc.

 

Now, if a person has cancer, that is a different thing. As a

perventaive for cancer, I don't know, although Udo's first ingredient

is flax oil.

 

But I like Udo's for the average person because of the balance and

the variety of oils.

 

just my 2 cents,

 

Frank

Since most people's diets (certainly mine) seem to be lacking

in omega3, adding Udo's oil isn't gonna help restore the balance the

way an oil very high in omega 3 can do. I don't use flaxseed oil

every day, but I do use it a few times a month, and I do use an ounce

of flax seeds daily.

Wayne,

 

There is a snippet below from Udo Erasmus site which provides some

answers regarding how much essential fat we need.

 

Regards, JoAnn

 

Too much Essential Fat?

How does the body distribute essential fats?

 

Essential fats are distributed through the same vehicles that carry

cholesterol throughout the body. They are found in chylomicrons,

VLDL, LDL, IDL, HDL and the other carriers. In fact, a molecule of

essential fat has to be hitched to a molecule of cholesterol to

transport cholesterol in these vehicles.

 

Fat is carried in a watery system (our blood stream) by adding

lecithin. Lecithin allows oil and water, which normally don't mix, to

mix quite readily.

This is because one end of the lecithin molecule

is water-soluble while the other is oil-soluble. It therefore forms

an interface between water and oil.

 

Proteins and minerals are also involved as carriers in the transport

of fatty acids throughout the body.

 

Can you get too much essential fat?

 

When you get more than 12-15% of total calories as n-3s, there is a

fat " burn-off " based on increased metabolic rate.

 

Other than exceeding liver capacity and getting nauseous, or not

sleeping because of too much energy because you took it too close to

bedtime, it doesn't appear so.

Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is a special blend of carefully chosen, natural, unrefined oils. It contains oils from fresh, certified organic flax, sesame and sunflower seeds, as well as oils from wheat germ, rice germ and oat germ. Natural, unrefined Udo's Choice contains an ideal balance of the essential fatty acids (EFAs) omega 3 (alpha-linolenic) and omega 6 (linoleic). These EFAs are so called because they are essential to life itself. They cannot be created by the body and must be obtained through diet. Refined, hydrogenated oils turn EFAs into harmful trans-fatty acids, and studies show most contemporary Western diets are lacking in omega 3. To compensate for this, many consumers have turned to unrefined flax oil, high in omega 3. But, having the right balance between omega 3 and omega 6 is equally important. Too much of one will cause a deficiency of the other. Over the long term flax oil alone can lead to a shortage of omega 6. Udo's choice was developed to address the need for a single oil that provides both EFAs in the correct amounts. The 2:1 ratio of 3s to 6s in Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend goes beyond anything previously available. It's the healthy solution to all your EFA needs. This oil blend is rich in lecithin, which provides the building materials for healthy cell membranes. It also contains medium chain triglycerides -- easy to digest and assimilate, they are used directly by our cells as a source of energy without increasing fat deposition. Vitamin E is added to improve shelf-life and to act as a free radical scavenger in the body. Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is pressed at a temperature of less than 50 degrees Celsius and, more importantly, in the absence of light and oxygen. The use of nitrogen-flushed, amber glass bottles further protects the oil from light and oxygen and helps to insure maximum stability. Like all fresh-pressed oils, Udo's Choice is sensitive to light, air and heat. It should not be used for frying, deep-frying or sautéing, but can otherwise replace most oils in food preparation and can be used in all the same ways as flax oil. Udo's Choice is excellent for making delicious healthy salad dressings and can be mixed with yogurt or tofu. Try serving it on steamed vegetables or baked potatoes, adding it to homemade veggie soup (after cooking), or mixing it with extra virgin olive oil in dishes such as homus and tabouleh. It adds zing to brown rice and can make both hot and cold cereals more nutritious. Udo's Choice actually brings out and improves the natural flavors of the foods to which it is added. You can consume it on its own, by the spoonful. Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend Ingredients: Flax oil*, sunflower oil*, sesame oil, medium chain triglycerides, evening primrose oil (12.6 mg GLA per tablespoon), rice germ and bran oil, soy lecithin, d-alpha tocopheral (natural vitamin E), oat germ and bran oil. (*from certified organically grown seeds). SuziLeah <edwardsera wrote:

What is Udo's oil? thanks, Leah3 tablespoons of Total Nutrition with three tablespoons of UDO's Oil, with 1 to 2 organic raw eggs a day would be awesome. Make sure you get lots of fresh organic fruit and veggies each day. A nutritional program is paramount.

Claudette,

We can talk about it here.. but there is so much info in the message archives, we could probably write a book..The idea being to learn more and more.... I work full time - leave home at 5:30 am get home at 5:30 pm and then have livestock to feed and a husband.... you do it a little at a time... You will find so much info there it will amaze you. I sit of an evening while honey watches TV and either browse, surf net or answer questions....... instead of "gluing myself to the TV.." but not every nite.. I do have housework etc to do... including my small garden.

Actually Claudette, Suzi is right, and you shouldn't just expect her or anyone else to do your seaching for you.

 

There is a tremendous wealth of information in the files and in the message archives, and even though it sometimes takes a little work, it is well worth the effort.

 

You too are right in that you can ask any question that you want to on list, but don't be surprised if you get the kind of answer that you received from Suzi telling you to look in the files. If someone else decides to answer up, that too is fine. It works both ways here.

The best nasal reconditioner is the Herbal Snuff formula, though to warn you, it'll have your eyes watering for an half an hour . This recipe is in the Files.

 

If you send your pic to either me or one of the other moderators, we'll make sure it gets in there.
