Omega-3s can be a beneficial part of someone's diet, but unfortunately our oceans are being over fished to the point of depletion. What if we had an alternative to those fish oil Omega-3s?

Something so common in the nutrition and health world is this idea of the magic bullet nutrient. Fats in food used to be that magic bullet for me.

When people tell me supplements are safe because they’re natural, I often tell them that poison ivy is also natural, but you wouldn’t be rubbing it all over your face.
