I wasn't discrediting the fact that ALA carries significant health benefits.

I was simply making sure it was understood on all parts (I like maintaining the integrity of information) that EPA and DHA are critical for health and ALA is not sufficient when it comes to the obtainment of these things.

In my mind, and I'd like to hear your thoughts on this, the obtainment of sufficient EPA and DHA is more critical to health than those benefits associated with ALA.

Of course it doesn't have to be an either/or proposition... obtaining your fats from oily fish and things such as flax is ideal. But that's a different story.

And let's leave the context of the poster in question. I want to simply discuss unbiased fact here.

Look forward to hearing from you.
