I don't know the answer to your question, Klavot.
I have assumed that Omega3's are passed up the food chain when animals eat each other. Thus our lotfed cattle, eating grain, do not contain the same omega 3's you'd get if they lived on natural pasture.
The idea is that grains are now overrepresented in the food chain?
I have assumed that reptiles (like goannas), say, are high in Omega 3s and imagine they would be good for my health. Why don't we eat reptiles? There is crocodile, of course.
