^ Thanks Becky - nerd may be a better description than expert (-: - I am not even sure what an expert is - the more I read the more I realise how complex the body is - several lifetimes and several networked brains

would not be enough

- and arguably many 'experts' for a host of often 'good' reasons are not as widely read as they might be, and there is a tendency for a host of reasons for people to want to be seen to support the status quo even if in their personal space they question the wisdom of it - historical science provides lots of examples - but happily things do change slowly - Do many now believe the sun whizzes round the earth !

And yes you got succinctly to the point of this trial - simplistically these mice make their own fish / krill oil.

- and they did not have much Omega 6 in their diet, part of which they turned into Omega 3s

For a bit more detail please see the Greek Diet Omega 3 and 6 thread
