asked:

<I take omega 3, 6 and 9 supplements in the

form of Flaxseed oil.

Most recommendations I see say to take them in

the form of fish oil. Is there a difference?>

 

Good question, and the answer is yes,

there is a difference.

I don't have the chemical details at my

fingertips, but it boils down to this:

Your body has to convert flax oil into a

more usuable form, while fish oil is ready

to go.

 

The more depleted your system is, the

more that difference will count.

For a healthy person the flax oil may

do the trick. A totally depleted person

may need the instant bio-availability

of fish oil.

 

It is kind of ironic that the world is waking

up to the importance of fish oil just as the

supply of clean wild fish is dwindling.

 

Another way to get those all-important

EFAs is through edible micro-algae.

Fish oil = concentrated algae oil.

Thanx for the reply. And it makes sense because when I get quantum healing done

through a SCIO machine it mentioned over and over how I am not digesting

fats/oils and need efas. YET I take 6000 g of flax oil a day!! I am doing

mostly organic and almost all fresh foods and still having

assimilation/digestion probs. But overall my health is getting better and

better this year.
