This is from a Medical CE Program I read today:
Beware of Charlatans and Misinformation
Consumer and patient confusion regarding fatty acids abounds, often a direct result of ambiguous marketing practices. Contributing to this confusion is the trading off of studies by using the general term omega 3 without specifying LNA, EPA, or DHA content or application. For example, a sales ad or product literature for a flaxseed or flaxseed oil product may cite that a study confirmed treatment efficacy with omega 3, when in fact the study referenced was conducted with a high dose of fish oil containing EPA and DHA. Whenever a product makes a claim regarding composition and function, scientific principles should be applied to discern fact from fiction.
