“…First, a direct competition between ARA and EPA is present when they are incorporated into fish tissues, especially when incorporated into phospholipids and cellular membranes. A multitude of ARA studies revealed decreased EPA deposition in fish in response to increasing dietary ARA levels 17,20,22,73,82–84,86,92,94–98,104,105,108–114,116,121,125,135,136,139,140,151,163,172,176,209,210 . Therefore, no doubts should be present that increased dietary ARA displaces EPA retention in fish tissues.…”
