Lightbulb for Chemar and Kim and others interested:

I am gathering some data for an EFA thread soon to come.

I found this interesting article that explains in more understandable (less chemical) language how the various essential fatty acids are used, and
metabolized to other long chain molecules in the body:

This is such a difficult concept to understand...so each time I find another
article, I hope it will be helpful.

This article focuses on inflammatory issues, so Chemar, you might find it helpful.
