I read the article from the link you posted ....why does too much Omega 3
contribute to stroke? Can someone explain...and how much is too much?

(Sorry for the long delayed response)
I don't have any documented answer for you. But from my limited knowledge, I
believe there are basically 2 different kinds of strokes- a stroke caused by
a blood clot in a vessel in the brain, and one caused by a hemorrhage.
Perhaps too much Omega 3 thins the blood too much leading to hemorrhage?
