There are two essential fatty acids that must be consumed in food, as the human body cannot produce them. They are alpha linoleic acid, a type of omega-3 fatty acid found in flaxseed, soybean and vegetable oils such as canola oil, and linoleic acid, a type of omega-6 fatty acid, found in similar foods.
The scientists first fed the flies linoleic acid and alpha linoleic acid, to test whether this would impact on their survival.
Idiocy.
