Seal Oil
Please refer to the picture on this page to understand how I feel about using seal oil to increase you Omega 3 Levels. The Oil comes mainly from Harp Seals. The Harp Seals are found in the arctic regions of the world. They are still hunted in Canada. The oil is found in the flesh. I am very much against the use of Seal Oil to increase your Omega 3 levels. Please see the following article on the depletion of the harp seal population
