I would not take a chance on omega-3 oils. She could die.

Hi, Neh'ada

 

The are alternatives to getting Omega acids from fish. One good

option is supplements made from Perilla oil (also known as Zi Su).

 

We also need to make sure that we get the right balance of Omega 3, 6

and 9.

 

To health,

Hello Suzanne,

I had not heard of Omega 9 and also thought that 6 was one

we do not want a great deal of. Is this so? Is Zi Su an herb?

Does it incorporate all three? Also, what is MSM?

Thankyou

Neh'ada

Hi again, Neh'ada

 

Omega 9 is also called oleic acid. It is supposed to help lower

cholesterol. From what I know, yes, you want mainly Omega 3's, but

the other EFA's (essential fatty acids) 6 & 9 are also helpful. In

the formulation I sell, there are 270mg of Omega 3, 70 mg of Omega 6

and 65 mg of Omega 9.

 

Perilla or Zi Su would be considered an herb since it is part of the

same plant family as mint. Yes, perilla contains all 3 Omega acids.

 

MSM stands for methylsufonylmethane and is a form of sulfur. My

understanding is that it helps so many different conditions because

it is present in uncooked/unprocessed foods, which of course most of

us don't get enough of.

 

Hope this helps,

 

Suzanne

Neh'ada--

 

Depending on how you eat, you most probably get more Omega 6 (found

in high concentration in vegetable oils and thus in chips and other

processed snack foods) than you need. Most people need to take less

Omega-6 and supplement with much more Omega-3 (if a person is

allergic to fish oil, a good source is flaxseed oil). I certainly

would not get a product that includes Omega-6 unless I was tested to

see if I was one of the rare people who didn't have enough. Too much

Omega-6 is not harmless--it can cause health problems.

 

With my best wishes,

Thankyou too Dennis for this information.

I have talked to my friend and she has also told me she

is allergic to nuts! I'm assuming flaxseed oil comes from

a seed or nut?
