Is DHA necessary?

Posted by saturn on January 17, 2007, at 9:34:06

I have read that DHA is just a 2-step conversion from EPA, and moreover that a high EPA/DHA ratio is best for treating ADHD, mood disorders, etc...

So would it be sufficient to simply take 100% EPA in order to achieve the mental and cardiovascular benefits of omega 3's? Would you have plenty of EPA and your body would simply synthesize from this the necessary DHA?

Thanks.
