Ratio Of Omega 3:6 Balance, I Dont Get It

carlos

Dave said it should be 1:1?

 

But then he says you can have as loads of Olive oil and egg yolks?

 

The ratio would be skewed to Omega 6's.

You would have to supplement many fish oils to get the balance back from just a few grams of olive oil or egg yolks.

 

What do?

Grass fed beef and butter have ratios of 1:3 plus fish oil and other food items.

 

 

1:3 as in Omega-3:Omega-6 or 1:3 Omega-6:Omega-3?

huh?

 

I thought grass fed butter was 1:1?

 

egg yolks and olive oil are heavily skewed to Omega 6

 

to balance it out you need a ton of fish oils 

 

is it okay for your diet to be Omega 6 heavy  

even if it comes from bulletproof foods?

carlos

Healthy range is 1:1-1:5 easily achieved, pastured eggs have better ratios, consumption of coconut oil works to reduce negative effects of omega 6 that is present, bp is not high 6.

 

 

Omega 3:6

 

4 egg yolks ~ 0.2:2.4

20g of olive oil ~  0.1:2.7

1 g worth of EPA/DHA ~ 1:0

Grass fed butter ~ 1:1

 

looks like I need to sort my fats out,

 my diet omega 6 lob sided

Wouldn't it be preferred to test your blood and adjust according to results? Like more krill less olive oil?
