The typical US diet has a ratio of 1:20 of
omega-3’s versus omega-6’s.
This ratio should be 1:1 to help
prevent most of the degenerative
diseases such as heart disease,
cancer, arthritis, degenerative brain
diseases and autoimmune disorders.
Also depression and allegies can be
greatly decreased by having the right ratio.
A study in the Journal of the American
Medical Association (JAMA)
has shown that by increasing the omega-3’s
in the diet it is possible
to cut down the risk of heart attack by 50%.
The ideal diet should contain organic,
nutrient dense foods that are high
in vitamins and minerals.
