Does anyone know if people allergic to fish can take CLO?

My SIL is preggo with her first. She is very young (18) and this was unexpected.

I am trying to get her help with her diet. They already drink raw milk and eat pastured meats. However, like most teenagers, fast food makes up a portion of her diet. She is, however, allergic to fish. Like her throat swells if she even gets a taste. That happened recently, so the whole CLO and fish thing has me concerned.

If she cannot take it, what would you suggest? Flax oil?

I'm not sure that I would risk it, given her reaction. I can't think of what else would be good to take. Flax oil might be an option but freshly ground flax meal is probably better. I just linked an article in another thread about flax that was quite eye opening.

I am really wondering whether there are any options aside from fish oil.

yikes! I checked out that link, and am wondering how many of the criticisms of flaxseed oil also relate to CLO. Any oil experts out there? What do you think?
