Re: Flax, fish oils, or Udo's

I've supplemented with omega-3's for almost ten years, and through first-hand experience I found this to be the accurate equation:


NKO>Cod Liver Oil>Fish oil>flax oil (for males at least)

Women have more of the enzyme necessary(which you all know I'm sure) to convert the alpha-linolenic acid in flax. As far as mufa's and pufa's, i'm not going to pretend i have advanced knowledge, but what i do have is exceptional intelligence and a rather objective critical nature.

The thing that many people who state scientific findings and fact verbatim forget is that sound anecdotal evidence may belie a more accurate truth than science currently has the comprehension of explaining. So while it is meritorious and often beneficial to state that scientific edict takes precedence over someone's opinion, when you have a few thousand someones of reasonable aptitude, it comes down to the proof on paper, and the proof in da puddin'.
