These acids are also the key ingredient used to sucessfully marine fish
fry. These acids are introduced in the young fish's food by using
other organisums as 'vectors' or carriers. I believe salmond oil is
high in two particular varities (5w and 6w - something or other;
its been a while since I've researched this).

In any case, I wouldn't by any salmond stocks on account of what
is said in the papers about chloresterol...
