Succinctly put, and helpfully presented with the hyperlinks.

Kelp oil is a new one I have not seen before. V interesting.

Algae bioreactors - I have to check that out. I have look at pyto plankton fat etc.. content as part of the food chain aspect. I was aware it was being done but do not know much more - how effective quantities costs benifits restrains etc.

Many thanks for the post always interested.

I don't know where goats sheep milk fits in / human tolerance / why it is different from cows milk. Generally there are lots of suggestions it is better tolerated and does not produce as much inflamatory reaction in some.

The ALA issue is commonly cited.

Grass fed have a natural fat balance. Grain fed take up fat profile of grain to a degree. In small quanitity the fats issue would not on the top of the concern list. I have to check but amounts of threes and sixes whilst balanced (good) are I beleive low about 2% each.

Hormones - if they are a problem I suppose one has to look at organic stock and intensive reared separately. The question I have assuming no man made addition is how do animal milk hormones ( what ever they are) impact on children in fromula milk. Is it something that has been studied. Is there a difference between impact on males and females etc. IF they are not a problem for babies why should they be a problem for grown women?

My area of research would be additional burden on the inflamary systems for those who are intolerant / cannot metabolise - and to what extent is that quantity and type dependent viz cultured milk whey etc.

Yet another whole speciallity on its own I suspect !..

Back to the things I should be doing - interesting interlude

Thanks again
