Why should I prefer Chia as Omega-3 source over fish or flax?

Of all Omega-3 sources, only flax and Chia originate in vegetal crops. Both are plant species with the highest concentration of alpha-linolenic fatty acid content known to date. The two other available sources are sea-origin: algae and fish oil.

Both sources contain long-range Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA, and DHA and EPA respectively. When comparing their oil composition, it is evident that plant-origin sources have a higher Omega-3 content than sea-origin ones. Omega-3 land sources present a major advantage over algae and fish because they contain a significantly lower amount of saturated fatty acids.

Chia oil has a saturated fatty oil content 2,8 to 5,1 times lower than menhaden and algae oil, respectively. Another important characteristic of fish oils is their cholesterol content, as they are animal products. It varies with the species.

For example, cholesterol levels per 100 grams of oil are 710 mg. For sardines, 485 for salmon, 521 for menhaden, 766 for herring and 570 for cod liver. ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
