The article mentions the importance of achieving a good ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3
There are 2 key indicators that you can measure:
Omega-3 Index_____>8%___Is my Omega-3 high enough ?
Omega-6/3 Ratio___
Increasing your Omega-3 is relatively easy
- take a high strength natural fish oil supplement or eat lots of oily fish like salmon, anchovies, herring and sardines.
Reducing your Omega-6 involves significant changes to your diet and lifestyle. You have to reduce your intake of oils made from Sunflower (=64% Omega-6), Corn (52%) and Soy bean (51%) You have to read the labels on all the processed food that you eat and question the source of all your meat, as most animals are fed on Corn and Soy beans
