Van Lopik, LSG’s first executive director who retired in 2005, and Ron Becker, associate
executive director who has been with the program since 1970. In the accompanying audio files,
they recall the founding of the program and its early years.

Omega-3 fatty acids are also known as essential fatty acids or polysunsaturated fatty
acids. These are essential to human health and must be obtained from food, particularly fish and
certain plant oils. Fatty acids are critical components of cell chemistry, allowing proper function
of cell membranes. Fish contains two important omega 3 polyunsaturated fats, eicosapentaenoic acid
(EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA). The body also converts some EPA and DHA from other sources:
flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, soybeans and some dark green leafy vegetables.
