| What are omega-3s?
Omega-3s are one of two families of essential fats, i.e., fats that we cannot make ourselves and must consume in our diet. Omega-3s originate in green leaves (not fish, as many believe), and they compete with omega-6s, fats that predominate in the seeds of plants, for positions in all our cell membranes. | 
| Where do Susie's Smart Cookies get their omega-3s from?
The omega-3s in Susie's cookies are all natural and come from walnuts, flax, and canola: three seeds that do happen to be rich in these fats. | Are these the same as the omega-3s found in fish? No, but they are from the same family and can be turned into those omega-3s by enzymes in our bodies. Conversion works best, though, when you have a healthy ratio of omega-6s to omega-3s (no more than 4:1) in your diet. Susie's Smart Cookies have a ratio of 3:1. | Where can I buy Susie's Smart Cookies?
