Just focusing on the omega-3 issue here, do you have any sources for these studies that say you get comparable omega-3 in fish oil and flaxseed oil? I work with a doctor of many years' experience in nutritional healing and this would be news to her as well. She has given me figures for the amounts of ALA that are converted to DHA and EPA and they are low. I can ask her for a source or two if anyone wants me to, but unlike most doctors, this is one who actually knows her stuff, she uses nutrition to heal some very sick people.
