| UK-Muscle Male Animal  | Well Vern my man, there are so many omega 3 fatty acids out there. Which one is the best? I try to eat salmon twice a week. I read that flaxseed raises estrogen levels so thats out. Borage is good but to expensive. Evening primrose oil and the list goes on. In my opinion the best omega 3 fatty acid is, drum roll please, the fish oil that contains the highest level of EPA and DHA. Those are the ingrediants that really matter. Just make sure you refrigerate all fish oils. Does that answer your question? I also like Red Yeast Rice. Both of my parents had heart attacks. I am trying to cover my bases thats all. I also take hawthorn berries (herb), garlic, cayenne aka capsicum. Vern I like ratio's. They are the only thing I can control. Just like counting calories. ;)

| Just found this again. What I don’t understand is how Vern thinks ratios and percents are something for a Mathematician. I am sure he was confused by winger’s article and judging by his grammar and spelling I am sure many simple things come as a difficult task assimilating to him. The ratio of Omega 3’s to Omega 6’s is between 1/1 to 1/4. The problem Vern is the fact that most cooking oils are rancid and very high in Omega 6’s pushing the ratio way out causing many health issues. In any diet if you eat vegetables and fruits (without all the oils) you would never get anywhere near the 1/10 to 1/25 ratio the typical American Diet would consume. If you ate just some French fries your ratio would be way out. Sure sensible eating is much preferred but there are much better oils like olive oil to cook with to keep these levels within check. Its all about information and application. What is the point of trying to know if you don’t apply? Worse yet, someone who wants to know and would apply if he knew but just didn’t know. Let’s use nuts as an example of ratios. There are many nuts, almonds, cashews, macadamia, walnut, pistachio, peanut, just to name a few. Peanuts (28g) 14g fat (polyunsaturated 4g) (saturated 2g) (monounsaturated 7g) 7g protein 6g carbs. (fiber 2g) (sugar 1g) Macadamia nuts (28g) 21g fat (polyunsaturated 0g) (saturated 3.5g) (monounsaturated 17g) 2g protein 4g carbs. (fiber 2g) (sugar 1g) Notice the difference of ratio’s in each amount of nuts. Diabetics read ratios as sugars have an impact on their blood sugars, which in turn has an impact on insulin. People on ketogenic (Atkins) diets look at the total carbohydrate intake to stay in Ketosis. These ratios might look complicated but once you understand them they are a very valuable tool to design your eating. So if you eat alot of fried foods you will have to cut back on fried foods and increase your intake of essential fatty acids. The cheapest way is Fish Oils and I swear by these from my own personal experiance. Thanks Chef for that.

| Hi All ratios are worth nothing ...ok i will make you run to your books now ..forget ratios first you have to find you R.D.A on E.FAs...BEFORE you look for a individual ratio!!! and the suggested intake is related to a % ah! and guess what this can can only be found by ...(drum roll) by first finding out your calories for EFA requiremnts (amounts in grams) ..so ..let .. be go ..slow...forget ratios you need to meet your daily requiremnets FIRTS and this can only be established based on YOUR calorie intake ...oh dear back there again ..(the basics) regards vern |

| Never read him. RDA regarding EFA's is a bunch of bull****. The food pyramid is a bunch of bull**** too. That was put together by the Agriculture Dept and has nothing to do with nutrition. How come so many Americans are fat?

| Vern... The RDA's are established not for HEALTH but for PROFIT. They are determined by the USDA the A stands for Agriculture as wasnoted by Hacskii above. In other words, your a moron for following the Corporate Bull****... again.
