Tks for that Liz
Ive attached SSA Media release re health benefits this week
Safe Harbor seem to be either
a. taking advantage of the 'fear' factor or
b. genuinely creating an alternative for people who have concerns
Personally I do not think its a good thing because clearly there is much
scientific evidence to support the fact that the risks of eating seafood are
overstated and the health benefits are understated and most clearly the
benefits are much higher than any perceived risks
All Safe Harbor product does is add cost to a product people should be
eating without adding any value
Better that people get the 'truth'
Those that dont believe the facts of the scientific evidence are unlikely to
be convinced by additional science technology in my opinion
best regards Roy
