Can’t I get Omega-3 from healthier foods like fruit and vegetables?
It is possible to get Omega-3s from some vegetables and beans, but it is not as efficient as getting it from fish or meat sources because the body doesn’t absorb the nutrients as effectively. The Canada Food Guide recommends a balanced diet that is made up of a variety of meat, vegetables, grains and milk products. Pork is part of that recommended list.
