About this listen

Previously published as Critical Omega-6/3 Ratio by C.W. Willington, M.D.

Fatty acids are as indispensable to good health as essential amino acids and certain vitamins and minerals. Without adequate amounts chronic disease and death may follow. The two most important essential fatty acids are omega-6 and omega-3. The body does not make them so they must be ingested. And to be effective it is critical for them to be in the proper ratio to each other.

The ideal omega-6 to omega-3 ratio for optimal health is between 3:1 and 1:1. Unfortunately, 95% of Americans have a ratio of 20:1 or higher. This severe imbalance leads to the formation of improperly structured cell membranes. This, in turn, significantly increases the risk of chronic disease and poor health, including heart disease, hypertension, depression, obesity, cancer, and widespread inflammation.

The current omega-6/3 imbalance is due to a substantial rise in omega-6 consumption over the past century. A good solution: restore the proper balance through a quality omega-3 supplement. But be aware that many of these supplements can be ineffective. A quality supplement must include polyphenols - naturally occurring protective compounds, like those in high quality olive oil - to insure viability.

How long does it take for the omega-3 fatty acids to restore optimal functionality to cell membranes? It depends on the lifespan of the particular cell. Liver cells, for example, may live a year. Bone cells may live twenty-five years.

Here's some good news: the most abundant cells in your body—red blood cells, responsible for delivering oxygen to every tissue—have an average lifespan of just 120 days. This means they are fully renewed every four months. With approximately 25-30 trillion red blood cells making up 75% of all the cells in your body, a high-quality omega-3 supplement can positively influence this renewal process. In just 120 days, omega-3s can enhance the flexibility, resilience, and efficiency of your red blood cells, helping them to better nourish your tissues.

This book provides valuable insights into the omega-6/3 ratio, backed by direct quotes from medical research conducted by hundreds of doctors worldwide. The sources are exclusively drawn from respected, peer-reviewed medical journals, with links to each article for easy reference, ensuring the information's credibility. All claims are thoroughly supported by rigorous research, presented with the same level of detail found in reputable medical literature. To enhance clarity and understanding, each article concludes with a concise summary.
