Ralphey's QUESTION:
'Interesting logic - so if I recall correctly places like SUDAN and Belize and Norway have some of the highest consumption of EPA per capita - what do their mortaltity rates show ?'

ANSWER:
From the link below, you will see that the avg Norway EPA/AA ratio in more than 1,000 people (with suspected CAD) was 0.34 (0.26 for smokers) better than US avg (< 0.1, this is a well known figure in particular for people suffering from CVD) but worse than avg Japan ratio (around 1, as measured in Jelis)

http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0129049

From this other link you will see that CHD deaths incidence by country is ca 77 in US, ca 56 in Norway and ca 30 in Japan

http://www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/cause-of-death/coronary-heart-disease/by-country/

So Norway is somewhere in between US and Japan when it comes to EPA/AA ratio and CHD mortality.

Thank you for providing further evidence that EPA/AA ratio is inversely correlated to CHD (death risk).
