Re: Omega 3's and 6's and racial genetics

This is very interesting. I knew that a very small percent of the population could make the conversion. I generally recommend Omega 3s in the form of fish/fish oil rather than flax oil because of this but the genetic predisposition is interesting. Thanks for posting.
