Inflammations are the huge problem in today’s American society. Most of them are induced by refined foods. Inflammation leads to achy joint parts, early aging of the skin and inner organs. They make it difficult to lose fat. They make you depressive and moody. Omega 6 is the primary cause of inflammation and in the perfect world, proportion to Omega - 3 should be 1:1. Contemporary Western diets typically have proportions of omega-6 to omega-3 in excess of 10 to 1, some as elevated as 30 to 1. Japanese diet is the only diet that has the ratio of 4:1.

Excess omega-6 fatty acids from vegetable oils interfere with the health benefits of omega-3 fats, in part simply because they compete for the same rate-limiting digestive enzymes. A high balance of omega-6 to omega-3 fats in the diet acts pro-thrombotic, pro-constrictive and pro-inflammatory. Chronic excessive production of omega-6 eicosanoids is correlated with arthritis, cancer and inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids are anti-inflammatories and Omega 6 fatty acids are pro-inflammatory. More than half of Americans suffer from one kind of chronic illness or another.

Don't buy products that offer you Omega-3/Omega-6/Omega-9 combination. You need more Omega-3 and Omega-9 and not so much Omega-6 because you're obtaining enough of Omega-6 from your diet anyway. Organic feed farm animals have way lower amount Omega-6 then farmed animals. It's straight forward, when the diet of the animals are changed, their meat is changed as well. Omega-6 is not a wrong fat, we need it, and it’s just bad if you have a great deal of it and not enough Omega-3 at the same time.

A person can think of Omega-3 as a thinning agent in the blood and Omega-6 as the thickening agent. Fish high in Omega-3 gets Omega-3 from algae. Omega-3 is also located in green leaves. Think of Omega-3 as "spring season fat", found in leafy vegetables. It thins our bloodstream, so we can move faster and be more agile. Than imagine Omega-6 as "fall fats", the ones that are eaten by animals preparing for the winter. As you can picture, Omega-6 is found in corn, nuts, soy and seeds. All of them are ready for usage in autumn, just before winter. Think of Omega-6 as fat storage space for animals. And THAT is what American people eat the whole year. LOADS of high processed corn syrup and soy oils. Everywhere. Whole year. If you draw a diagram of refined wheat, corn and soy intake increase in the western society and if you draw a diagram of grown obesity, you will see the connection.

How to change your diet so you eat perfectly balanced Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio? Try consuming more Omega-3 (avocado, flax, salmon, chia seeds, raw nuts) or take Omega-3 supplements and avoid vegetable oils full with Omega-6. High Omega-6 intakes are associated with a rise of all inflammatory diseases:
