1. Extracted lipid from Brassica or Aradidopsis seeds, whose total fatty acid content comprises(a) a total monounsaturated fatty acid content which comprises oleic acid,(b) a total saturated fatty acid content which comprises palmitic acid and, if present, myristic acid (C14:
- 0),(c) a total ω
6 fatty acid content which comprises linoleic acid (LA),(d) a ω
3 fatty acid content,(e) less than 1% myristic acid (C14;
0), and(f) less than 4% eicosatrienoic acid (ETrA),wherein(i) a level of DHA between 7% and 20% is present in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid, wherein at least 70% of the DHA is esterified at the sn-1 or sn-3 position of triacylglycerol (TAG),(ii) a level of palmitic acid between 2% and 16% is present in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid,(iii) a level of linoleic acid (LA) between 4% and 35% is present in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid,(iv) the total saturated fatty acid content of the extracted lipid is between 4% and 25% of the total fatty acid content,(v) the ratio of the total ω
6 fatty acid content to the ω
3 fatty acid content in total of the extracted lipid is between 0.1 and 3.0, and(vi) at least 70% of the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid is esterified in the form of TAG.
