Best time of the day to take EFA's?

[eru]

I just purchased the Total EFA ( http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/sun/efa.html ) in liquid form.

Is there a certain time of the day when it is best to take it?

Thanks.

It will slow the absorbtion of whey when you need it fast, as fats are complex to breakdown.

I take my fish oil caps with breakfast, dinner, pre-bed meals.

Well I'm sure you know that fats slow the digestion of whatever they're consumed with. Since we know that the body needs fast nutrition post wo it would defeat the purpose to take EFA's at that time.

hrm, i just started taking EFAs today, and would ya know it, i took the first 2 caps about 45 minutes post-workout

damn!

i also take a multivitamin post-workout, which includes the multi, a chromium pill, vit e, vit c, and ginseng. this obviously isnt a problem, but ill move the EFAs to another time in my daily intake.

thx!

any time besides PWO. fats are stored and used in a much less time-dependent manner, so you aught not worry when fat or fat soluble vitamins are taken.
