Fish Oil Vs Flax Oil

Aug-17-2009 Posted under Kelly Talk

Somebody asked what are the differences between fish oil and flax oil:

There are numerous differences. The most significant, and the reason I take a fish oil supplement, is that not all of us convert ALA into EPA and DHA. For me, DHA is important. Even if the body converts the ALA to EPA, it still has to make DHA. Since we are unaware of who is able to make the conversion, I use caution and take a fish oil to assure I am getting the EPA and DHA my body needs. I truly believe the reason we face so many epidemic health challenges is the lack of these key nutrients. However, when you’re looking for a vegetarian-friendly EFA, Flax Seed Oil is a great way to add more healthy fats to your diet.
