Oh wow, so I was wrong.
We really do need to eat EPA/DHA then........
So. Obviously this means cold water carnivorous fish.
But I've always wondered.... I've met people who have never eaten fish in their whole life. I've met several in fact. How come they're not dead or something equally tragic? Is it just more subtle than that, as in, they are just slightly less healthy or something?
And, what about all those moms who don't eat fish but are breastfeeding? Clearly, their infants aren't going to be getting any omega 3's in their diet whatsoever. Now I know that kids which have had omega 3 whatever, are more healthy etc. But why are the kids still alright when they haven't had any?
Do you see what I'm saying?
Anyway, I ate some nice norwegian salmon yesterday.....I'd like to try some arctic char - I saw it at a resaurant, but I went for the whitefish instead - I didn't realise it was a fish, i thought it was some form of chargriled reindeer.... I regretted it! I love fish!!! How can people not like it? Anyway I don't eat red meat, so perhaps thats why. And I try not to eat the farmed salmon stuff through. But the whitefish is pretty pure here. I hope it contains omega 3!! Do you have any links to species of fish vs omega content?
I need to start taking the fish oil capsules again, but....I have OCD and 'contaimination' fears, which (very unfortunately) extend to taking supplements as well.....boo hoo.
Kind regards
Meri
