I can’t say that you are wrong, but many ‘supplements’ contain artificially synthesized ingredients, rather than natural substances from once living sources, and that turns the idea of food supplements on it’s head.

Also, much of the fish oil on the market is useless crap from farmed fish that contains almost no value at all.

One must shop wisely. There are testing labs. There are also tons of abstracts available, many reporting either epidemilogical or double blind human experiments.

As to synthetics, that they turn a concept on its head doesn’t mean much to me. There are some synthetics that are demonstrably better than the ‘natural’ alternative.

I really do not need John McCain to help me make those decisions. More important, I don’t need him preventing me from making those decisions.
