Hi,

Yeah, so, does anyone where are fish oil tablets in Osaka?!

And, by the way, are they any good for your insides (bones, joints, etc.)? Cool

What kind of fish?

BYW I've got plenty of snakeoil I can sell you.

Why don't you just eat fish instead? It's much better tasting.

Why not just order from an American company like GNC and then have them shipped to Japan? I would think vitamins and supplements would be cheaper coming from America even with shipping.

I'm not in Osaka, but in Tokyo every drug store sells fish oil capsules. I imagine Osaka is no different.

It's not especially beneficial to bones but it is anti-inflammatory so if you have some joint pain resulting from inflammation, it may be of help. Mind you, if your diet is bad and you're eating a lot of inflammatory food, then popping a few fish oil caspules will probably do nothing.

It's mainly good for the blood and so thought to be helpful in preventing cardio vascular disease.

You're surrounded by fish, oily and otherwise; eat some mackerel.
