Most popular health articles I read agree: we all need more Omega-3 fatty acids in our diets. Some experts say if you are going to take just one supplement, make it an Omega-3.
Omega-3 fatty acids are important for our bodies in ways we understand and ways we don’t. What we do know is that food sources with a high ratio of Omega-6 fatty acids to Omega-3 fatty acids are bad for human bodies. Modern scholars associate many ailments like heart disease and breast and prostate cancers with excessive Omega-6 consumption.
If Omega-3 fatty acids are so important to good health, how did people historically get their Omega-3 ration? Not every culture has access to fish and fish oil in its diet. Where else does Omega-3 come from? Why are we deficient in Omega-3 now?
