Of course "fat isn't so bad!" ... but it is, if you live off fast food like a significant part of the US population.

Also "fat <> fat" ... I eat every day at least one tablespoon of linseed oil. And that is very good for me and my brain :)

And how exactly do you know that it is good for you and your brain?

ALA, while essential, is effectively useless 'for your brain'. You need the products your body creates in inadequaate amounts from ALA, EPA & DHA.

Furthermore, I personally guarantee your flax oil is rancid. That shit does not keep. Eat sardines.
