Hi Full of Beans,

Thank you for your thoughts on pollution of fish. I had not thought about the difference between carnivores and filter feeders. Just lower down the food chain and so less levels of concentration of pollutants I guess is the point.

I suppose it also depends how polluted the waters are where they fish come from.

Re continued Omega 3 intake. Omega three is not heavily stored in fat under 1% for many but Omega Six is 10-25% of body fat in the west so a constant supply of Omega three in general terms is needed.

The often mentioned book is nearly nearly nearly finished - again!!, it is having its final set at the moment. I have just split it down into three and four sentence pars from bigger pars which heavy readers liked but occasional readers blanched at. I had not thought to show it to occasional readers. It has grown to about 370 pages - size 17cm by 24.4cm - 30 chapters each split into a number of small sections each covering a topic - over 800 refs, and hopefully understandable.
