Most persons want to know how to eat a healthy diet canned tuna and sometimes making healthy food choices is perplexing to the public. On the nature of EFA's, you mention that linoleic acid is the only truly essential fatty acid. canned tuna While this may be so, it glosses over the effects of an under supply of linolenic acid in the diet, because when eicosadienoic acid is synthesized and substituted for (gamma) linolenic acid in the w-3 eicosanoid pathways, the rates of peroxidation, cyclooxygenase activity, desaturase activity and reaction products are altered. Thus canned tuna it seems very helpful to include both EFA's in the diet for proper functioning of the arachidonate / eicosanoid synthesis pathways in humans. (Not to mention the many journal articles on the triglyceride and LDL lowering effects of fish oils over the past several years) It's sort of like the question of "folic acid or cobalamin"?
