I’m 69 year old male, APOE 4/4, controlled hypertension, controlled T2D (H1Bac always 5.7), eating low...

Re: Cost comparison: different sources of phospholipid-bound omega-3

The same French? wholesaler provides this product to Euromega and in the the US to Terry Naturally as Vectomega. It does look promising. It contains titanium oxide and iron oxide (rust) if that matters to you. For my original analysis, I contacted both outfits noting that they listed phospholipids, ...

Re: Cost comparison: different sources of phospholipid-bound omega-3

I found information about the phospholipid-bound content of DHA and EPA in Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Phospholipids (NN O-3 P).

Re: Cost comparison: different sources of phospholipid-bound omega-3

A herring-roe extract contained in two US retail products is among the more economical sources for phospholipid-bound DHA and EPA, the kind that is supposedly better taken up by APOE 4s. Revised Summary: Cost of DHA-PL $24 per gram - salmon roe $12 per gram - krill oil $6-13? per gram - canned ancho...
