Hi Becky, nice to see your very happy photo today!

I am not sure that omega threes have a direct impact on thrombin but I do know they promote blood thinning to some extent. In fact, I THINK I read that omega threes act on preventing aggregate platelets, not on decreasing thrombin. Anyway, I like your "slippery slide by cancer theory" on omega threes. Pour on the omega3s and let's slide away from cancer-ha, ha.

PS. I also wonder why there are conflicting reports on vit e. Some say it does help prevent cancer spread, other don't. It's very confusing. It's also confusing that vit e may be a blood thinner and antioxidant yet has these conflicting reports. I also don't know why I was told by the Sloan that natural blood thiners may promote mets when so many articles that I googled today deny that.
