Researchers identify key regulatory mechanism in inflammation (Omega-6 fat linoleic acid goes awry in burns, sepsis, cancer, and COVID-19)

You can start reducing future problems now, by reducing sources of Omega-6 fat and increasing Omega-3 fats.

Monounsaturated and saturated fats do not directly affect that ratio, but replacing Omega-6 fat with either would help bring it down.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This potentially high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to implement for your benefit.

Now keeping a new list (“Common Issues”) for conditions expected to only concern at least 1% of the population. Ask to be on either the “Common Issues” or “Everything” list.

Please email or private message me if you want on or off of a list and of which list you desire.

I get a lot of Omega 3s. A test said I need more of some Omega 6s.

[ConservativeMind]

You are the first person I have heard had that problem.

Interesting.

Olive oil is one of the highest in linoleic acid. It’s not an industrial seed oil and has been associated with many health benefits.

What gives?

[Jane Long]

I did a quick search, and found this article on REDUCING Omega-3 and INCREASING Omega-6, in diets....

https://www.samterssociety.org/the-omega-diet

It’s for a specific ailment, but....the guidelines of what to eat/avoid may be beneficial.

Olive oil is low in linoleic acid:

“Area percentage of linoleic acid in borage oil is 38.47%, in evening primrose oil is 74%, in canola oil 20.12%, in corn oil 59.27%, in sunflower oil 71.17%, in cottonseed oil 56.35%, in linseed oil 15.18%, in soybean oil 56%, in olive oil, 7%, in extra olive virgin oil 8.64%, in olive pomace oil 10.33%, in peanut oil 31%, in rice bran oil 36.28%, in palm oil 10.62% and in palm kernel oil 2.76%.”

I don’t think many people do some of these tests.

Anyone who uses soy, corn, sunflower, or cottonseed oil gets a lot of Omega-6 fat.

It’s hard to eat more Omega-3 fat, over Omega-6 fat.

[TTFX]

Omega 6 and omega 3 fats should be reduced.

Omega 3 fats smell disgusting and people naturally avoid them.

The omega 3 PR is a scam to sell a waste product for billions of dollars.

Seed oils are high in omega 6 fats. People started using them because they were cheaper. They cause obesity and cancer.

As the percentage of fat in people’s bodies that is omega 6 fats increases, they break records on frequency of obesity and cancer.

Sardines packed in olive oil taste better and are healthier because they have less omega 3 fats.

The omega 3 fats move to the oil that you can throw away.

[Jane Long]

The article I linked, upthread, lists deep fried foods as one of the Omega-3 culprits....as well as processed foods and baked goods.

[ConservativeMind]

Jane, the article you posted is completely describing REDUCING OMEGA-6 and INCREASING OMEGA-3.

[ConservativeMind]

You didn’t read your own article.

You have it exactly backwards.

[Jane Long]

I know...I just looked, again.....with glasses :)

Sorry about that....and, I *almost* made a screen grab, of their chart...yikes.

Thanks.

So eat more salmon and sardines (wild-caught is better, but farmed is better than nothing)and supplement. The generic Omega-3s at Costco and Sams Club are very cheap compared to the benefits - and priceless if they give you extra years of healthy life.

Bttt.

Great,

now maybe the Medical Industrial Complex can figure out the key regulatory mechanisms that allow them to get away with declaring false pandemics and charging whatever they feel like charging for medical billing

A good rule is any food that the children of Israel were given in abundance in the Promised Land is probably good for you.
