Re Cox 2 / animal trials

Re animal trial.

The in vivo human trial referred to above suggests omega 3 / 3:6 balance link to breast cancer. A whole host of trials all point in the same direction on omega three and six, unlike any other substance I have found. Please do look it up on an NCBI search.

As to trials more work I totally agree. But who will fund it, and "market" the results, it has limited commercial potential, and could reduce the market for drugs.

Re Cox 2.

Cox 2 is a product of the omega six eicosanoid pathway. See earlier posting on the subject which will help explain the linkof cox 2 with linoleic acid omega six.

As to weight there are a number of pathways that appear to suggest that imega three contributes to fat storage and omega three to fat utilisation.
