1. Myristic acid (Tetradecanoic acid) (palm kernel oil, coconut oil, butterfat, bovine milk, and breast milk) 2. Behenic acid (Docosanoic acid) (from canola and peanut oil (and peanut skins)
The Omega-7 monounsaturated fatty acid you don’t want:
Palmitoleic acid (in vegetable oil, meat fat, macadamia oil, sea hawthorn oil)
Do we really want another 5 years?
Correlation is not causation.
A couple years ago, my GP said that he no longer recommended daily fish oil supplements as the research was inconclusive at best.
Too bad this paper didn’t look at fish oil supplements vs fresh oily fish.

and interesting long term study?
but remember statistics NEVER gives you an answer, at best it leads to another question..
These articles always refer to fish oil as omega 3 sources.
Cold pressed flax seed oil is an excellent source of omega 3 fatty acids and you don’t burp up fishy taste. Also, flax seed oil has a very good ratio of omega 3 to omega 6 fatty acids which is also key.
Flax oil will lower your cholesterol numbers.
so-called red blood cells
what’s with the ‘so-called’ ? are blood cells racists, too?
Great! I love herring, cheese, sausage, beer etc.!😃
Nattokinase is another good one. It will lower your blood pressure and help eat up plaque in the vascular system. I take it mixed with a lot of K2 and Indole-3-carbinol.
Brawndo has electrolites.
Brilliant. I'm a smoker and I have some salmon in the freezer. I was planning on smoking it, wait, what? Now I'm confused.
The Omega 3s are also found in pastured eggs and grass fed beef.
Not mixed with mercury in fatty fish.
I am screwed.
Yeah I first started reading about omega 6/3 ratios about 5 years ago. at the time my ratio was 20/1 in favor of the omega 6’s. So I started to supplement with fish oil. Three years ago my ratios were 4/1 in favor of omega 6’s.
A couple months ago I retested. My ratios were 1/1.
We’ll see if this does any good.
