I have been trying to educate myself on both to see each of it's benefits. Which one should I take or can I take both? My husband says fish oil, but I'm honestly confused!!

    Fish oil is better than flaxseed oil when it comes to getting your Omega-3s. There is a distinct difference in the type of Omega-3s you get between fish oil and flaxseed.

    Now I have a question...what is better flax seed or hemp seed?
    I have been starting to use hemp seed because it has both omega 3 and 6...but after reading the book Eat to Live, it is suggesting that too much omega 6 fat is not good either!
    aarrgghhh...what to do?!?!
