From:Journal of the American Dietetic Association (Vol. 91, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedAbstract (Omega)-3 Fatty acids (Omega)-3FAs) are found in seafoods, some plants, and some livestock rations. Fish oils are the only concentrated source of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5 (Omega)-3) and docosahexaenoic...
