Re: Type of Fat that can kill instantly

this explains how our diet got so high in omega 6 and low in omega 3. if you scroll down to point # 9 & 10, it gives a very clear and consice explanation. i would copy and paste it, but that site locks out user pasting. the main culprit is the ever present corn oil which is in virtually EVERYTHING these days. the ratio in corn oil is an astounding sixty omega 6 to one omega 3. safflower, which is also ubiquitious has a ratio of almost eighty omega 6 to one omega 3.

couple that with the declining consumption of sea food and you have dangerous high levels of omega 6 vs. 3.

another problem is that farm animals fed a preprocessed grain diet produce meat that is abnormally high in omega 6.

its all about balance.

i have heard that hemp fat has the perfect ratio of omega 3 6 and 9. Tweet
