>>One of the DHA formulas used
eggs as the source of the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, providing
DHA in the form of phospholipid.

I know that one of the nutrition researchers here at Texas A&M has been
doing research on increasing the DHA content of eggs by feeding the
chickens fish meal.  Could it be that the researchers were using
DHA-boostered eggs??
