nswer: As I discussed last
time, essential fatty acids
(EFAs) are divided into
two groups: Omega-3 and Omega-
6. An ideal dietary balance/ratio
of Omega-3 to Omega-6 is
thought to be between 1:1
and 1:3.

The American diet,
typically, is overly rich
(often 1:20 and higher)
in Omega-6 foods (e.2.,
cereals, fried foods.
' baked aoods, and mar-
garine). Less Omega-6s
and more Omega-3s (e.g.,
cold water fish; flaxseed
oil, and dark green leafy
vegetables) in your diet
can help rebalance the equation.
The American Heart Association
(AHA) says that while Omega-3-
rich foods are preferred, Omega-3
supplements may be beneficial.

Recent research indicates that
elevated levels of suspected heart
disease markers (e.g., C-reactive
protein and homocysteine) may be
related to Omega-3 deficiencies.
Increased Omega-3 intake has
been associated with reducing cho-
lesterol levels and blood pressure,
stabilizing heartbeat, alleviating
rheumatoid arthritis, and improved
brain functioning, among others.
Need I say more?
