There are no experts here, just concerned heathcare advocates.

I have heard on the board that the prefered dose of olive oil is 3 - 4 tbs / day OR alot of cooking with it.

I would love to see the article on CO-Q10 and tumor progression...everything I've read says the opposite.

For fish oil, I would prefer flaxseed seed it is really a glorified version. Here is a quote from an article:

"A few words of caution to those using fish oils (eg salmon oil) rather than flax or another good source, hempseed oil - a Greenpeace report, “Body of Evidence: the effects of chlorine on human health”, relates independent laboratory analysis of 20 fish oil supplements, all of which had detectable levels of cancer-causing organo-chlorine pesticides, including DDT and also the feared cancer causing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB’s)."

Regards,
Al
