Ginny, my love, I don't think it's such poor science. I am so sick of science telling us stuff....does anyone watch TV???? Every couple of months we are subjected to a wonderful new drug...a few months later, the lawyers are paying for ads so that we can sue this drug or that. And if I sound like I believe everything I see on TV, that is so not true. I think it's all stupid. I will take my flaxseed and all others in the hopes that I can outlive the scientists, sigh.
Love,
Bren, agreeing with Ginny and Tomo

You're correct about the fish oil; I went and checked my sources as
well, and molecular distillation seems to be the norm. So that leaves
me no leg to stand on as far as production. I still have a gut
reaction that eating a fish is more natural than eating a bunch of
seeds of a particular kind, and that the Omega 3 in the fish is more
accessible and requires less conversion. Since I fancy us as
preferential carnivores with omnivorous dentition and enzymes, I'd
rather reach for the fish, too.
Very poor science, but it's OK with me.
