Guest guest Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 I really only know what has worked for me about flax seed oil. But also I wasn't and haven't been eating lots of raw veggies or vegetables. Was sort of heavy into grains and grilled vegtables. I live in the NE in the winter, and sort of crave hommey cooked food. Flax Oil is suggested two tablespoons a day one at night one in the morning. I only take it if I'm feeling tired or craving meat, and it seems to work. I only mention it not to promote the propaganda, but it keep me from having to eat some fish (which now tasts dirty). I'm switching to a primarily raw diet and will see if the need for essential fatty acids gets met that way. What do you guys eat to get more good fats? Matthew Celebrate 's 10th Birthday!

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Matthew, I get good fats from avocados, nuts and seeds, olive oil, and tofu. Walnuts are especially high in Omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fish. Bonus: walnuts don't contain the mercury and other toxins found in fatty fish, plus animals don't have to die!
