Summary:

The abstract for a study testing the omega-3 levels in fat from flax-fed pigs. 300mg of omega-3 per serving are needed for a product to be classified as enriched, so the fat from pigs fed 0, 5, or 10% flax was tested. All cuts tested from the 5 and 10% diets were high enough to be considered enriched. Eicosapentenoic acid (EPA) and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) increased with increased flax, but docosahexaunoic acid (DHA) was unaffected.
