It seems as if Biotest is is “Out of Stock” of Flameout every other week.
In any case, I know how awesome Flameout is but I was wondering if there were any other brands that offered similar amounts for the same price or cheaper? And also, if anyone can tell me a good substitute for Biotests BCAAs. I want to keep using Biotest but i need “back up” stuff during times like this. Also, Biotest can get a little expensive at times. So again…a GOOD substitute for :
Flameout (I know i know almost impossible)
Biotest BCAA
When I run out of Flameout and it’s out of stock (or I don’t have quite enough free $), I take the best fish oil I can get and also grab a bottle of CLA. It’s not the same, considering that Flameout has much higher DHA than just about anything else, but I’m sure it’s better than nothing.
Just buy regular fish oil caps, try find highest mg of DHA and EHA. The caps i take have roughly 150+ mg of both. I know it’s not as high as Flameout, but very cheap. So all you need to do is increase dose, to get your desired amount.
Biotest packs Flameout with all the goodstuff. Even if you take all those fishoil caps… 150mg is about 1/8 the amount of EPA in Flameout… and 1/20 the amount of DHA.
Yes …fish oil is good. but Flameout has a great concentration so you dont have to pop pills all day.

If you dont mind taking 15 caps or so… go ahead[/quote]
I understand. I was asking for a temporary substitute. What brand out there is a good substitute in both price and quality?
I’ve been taking Norwegian Cod Liver Oil. The serving size is one teaspoon, but I take tablespoons each time. One tablespoon (which is 3 teaspoons) gives 2.7g of EPA/DHA. Like most fish oil supps (and unlike Flameout), the amount of EPA is slightly higher than DHA.
This is the cheapest and highest quantity of fish oil I have found. It’s about 10 bucks for a small bottle, which lasts a good while. 3 or 4 tablespoons a day is about 8.1 to 10.8 grams of fishoil. Seems better than taking 15 or so pills a day.

I don’t, because the low cost more than makes up for the slight inconvenience.
