Flax seed and fish oil

[Frank EP]

Ive tried to read some articles regarding the two but i am still kinda confused. Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.

In a nutshell, Fish oil contains DHA/EPA, flax oil contains ALA which is converted in the body to DHA/EPA at a VERY POOR rate. However flax seeds contain lignans which are very sexy.

So ideally take both, if you can only afford one, take fish oil.

You won't find anything really all that negative about them.

do a search for fish oil in this forum and you'll find a lot of good info.
