I take one of these a day, just cause. . . they are in a jell coated capsule. My question? Do we really dissolve and absorb these? Should I poke a hole in it and suck it out? Sounds greasy and yucky but if it would work better I would try it. Getting ready to order new "stuff" and this inquiring mind wants to know what you think.

I do believe they dissolve but I'm not positive.

Me, I get my omega 3 via Flaxseed oil........I put it on top of oatmeal in the morning and use it for salads sometimes.

 OK - this one I know.
Liquids for gastric bypass work best on everything.  The pill does not have the same amount of time to break down with the bypass.

I use a liquid in my protein drink.  I can't even taste it.  I also us a powder calcium that has many more good things in it.  

Once I have my surgery I intend to go all liquid.  No sense in taking up precious space with pills.  

Take care

You won't absorb it any better. It's still oil. Same reason you malabsorb A, D, E, K.

Coromega DOES absorb. No oily yucky stuff.

P.S.  My year + long absence has NOTHING to do with my WLS, or my type of WLS. See my profile.

I just keep learnin'. Seems like I can just take it in a "dose" at a time. Hope I manage to get it figured out before my body falls apart on me!

I learned it one tsp at a time.

And then I revise my thinking pretty often, too. LOL
