tehorix789 ::: Favorites For the remainder of the ALA fatty acids that are NOT "up-converted," does the body still use these for energy/calories (or in some other way), or are they simply excreted? 07-05-21 19:21:50 _____________________________________________________
mercola ::: Favorites That is precisely the problem. If you take too much ALA it builds up. It is fat soluble and is NOT excreted but stored in your tissue until you metabolize it which could be many years. High levels of ALA can actually CAUSE cancer and other diseases. So the key is to eat not only the right EFAs but the right amount. 07-05-21 19:41:50 _____________________________________________________
tehorix789 ::: Favorites Wow, did not know that. Thanks for the info (and quick response, lol). 07-05-21 19:57:34 _____________________________________________________
JesusFuck ::: Favorites It seems that nutrition, in general, is so complex. How does someone go about figuring out what we should be eating everyday to be getting all the necessary nutrients and something that goes along with a workout regiment that, in my case, would help lose weight (fat) and gain some muscle. And how should that evolve to accommodate an athlete (for example, if you want to build muscle endurance or general cardio, etc.) ??? Thanks! 07-05-21 22:29:32 _____________________________________________________
mercola ::: Favorites GREAT question. Best way I know of is to purchase my new book Take Control of Your Health, which is the compilation of my 30 years of clinical experience and over 100,000 written pages on my site. Will be available end of June as went to printer yesterday. 07-05-22 05:47:05 _____________________________________________________

mercola ::: Favorites I agree, sardines are one of the best sources and frequently clean. The salmon I use is wild Pacific and very clean also but much closer to $20 per pound. 07-05-22 13:31:56 _____________________________________________________
