I forgot eggs
> broccoli, other green leafy veges..like darker green leaves in lettuces, other green veges I guess too.. would need to check how much is in them, I dont eat grass or algae :)
>
> kelp - one to two inches a day, I get this from the beach and dry it so I hope it doesnt have too many heavy metals etc
>
> sardines - one 100g tin every cuple of weeks on average
>
> pilchards- well I tried a couple again, too strong flavoured..or maybe just too salted fro me how I had them
>
> other fish, crab, seafood, calamari.. yep, if i can get it fresh ( seasonal, like when I catch some or neara trawler, or find some fresh somewhere.. got some good fresh seafood in BN) .. maybe not great sources but must contain a little
>
> kangaroo meat should be real high in it- they eat grass
>
> other grass fed meat.. lamb, beef(non grain fed), milk, cream, butter, cheese
>
> walnuts (yes they also contain omega6's as well as omega 3's... everything does? it's just different ratios)
>
> flaxseed maybe once a week (ground if possible or some whole), if I could get non rancid oil that'd be good
>
> fish oil.. maybe 2 or 3 caps a week max, just as a top up to help bring level up
>
> some omega-3 (DHA?) added in the bread (Omega3 UP) I eat sometimes.. they are trying too get a bit balanced back, a marketing angle
>
> NO idea how much or what my balance is, I'm sure it could be better BUT the main point is the ratio of omega6:omega3 oils , so cutting back on omega6's (like soy oil, sunflower, safflower and other grain based oils ..like margarine etc is just as important if not more so)
> I hope my balance is getting there, but I'm sure its still not in the 1:1(ideal) to 1:4 (max) range (omega3:omega6).
