Not only are fish oils more susceptible to rancidity, you can certainly get TOO MUCH EPA,DHA and HPA, and it can cause heart problems, and possibly worse. Also, The Gerson institute has been CURING cancer for over 70 years with flaxseed oil, not causing it. Also, there is the possibility oh toxins in the fish being present in the oils as well. Your body can convert the omega 3's from flaxseed into any type of omega 3's it needs, but you can't convert back into ALA. If you insist on using an animal based omega 3 source, Pure arctic krill oil is the best. Where do you think whales get their omega 3's? I think you should check your sources next time, Donna.
