Where does your Fish oil come from?
Most Australian Omega 3 oils come from farmed fish which is quite low in the active constituents EPA and DHA. In the Australian newspaper on 26th May 2009, it was reported that toxic agricultural chemicals have been detected in a Queensland hatchery that "has been plagued by dead and deformed fish". The chemical sprays come from the local macadamia farm. This is why it is essential to take only wild caught, molecularly distilled, sardine and anchovy Omega 3 oil that I prescribe, not commercial/retail fish oil.
