reading a bit more on this stuff...I think adding in some omega9's as well as the omega3's is important in the mix too.
Olive oil contains omega9's (oleic acid)..there are other types too, but perhaps this is one of the best ones...google on omega9
I've , well for a no of years anyway used olive oil in cooking..and eaten almonds etc.
Flax apparently has a little omega9 too.
Taking both omega9 + omega3's really helps reduce the omega6's and bring them into balance...a lttle saturated fat added in helps too(like I use unrefined coconut oil on my skin sometimes as a moisturizer and use butter and avocados in place of margarine).http://fst.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/9/5/329
I've always bought "sardines in olive oil" in tins, I'm not going to fry them though...maybe they are already cooked this way?Just trying to balance the ratios..and I guess this means reducing omega 6's and eliminating trans fats wherever possible, kinda what I've been doing for years anyway. Gee I should be healthy!
