Ah, it's coming back to me. When I left the discussion, the hot topic was how much of the plant-based w-3 really could be converted, with opinions varying drastically and the research being called into question / accused of being inapplicable for assorted reasons. (One of the reasons was that one camp viewed this not as a fixed conversion rate, but as dynamic and adaptive.)
Not to reignite controversy, but I'm curious if you feel anything from it? It's remarkable to me how much I do feel the psychotropic effects of smallish amounts of w-3 in concentrated fish-oil form. It's possible it's placebo, but I don't get the feeling from actual fatty fish, which is interesting. But it's strong enough for me that I take it in the evening to calm down and get ready for bed. Doesn't work w/ flaxseed oil, either. I'm quite sensitive to mind-altering substances, though.
if you feel anything from it?
I was taking fish oil recently. We had been giving it to our old dog to ease her joint pain. After she died, I took the rest of it. I wouldn't say I noticed anything, though.
