Saw this on CTV NEWS last night. We have all been told that oil containing Omega 3 is heart friendly but most oil that contain Omega 3 also contain Omege 6 which is heart unfriendly even though one might have normal cholestrol(sp).

Strangely both the American Heart Association and the Mayo clinic disagree with your characterization of the danger posed by Omega 6.

but when you google CTV news and Omega 6 the most recent find is from September. Very odd.
This is indeed odd. If not CTV, then it must have been Global, CBC or CityTV, definitely a Canadian station. Anyway, the TV station doesn't matter, the substance of the thread does. Just trying to protect the health of my fellow TERBies (as ungrateful as some seem to be).but when you google CTV news and Omega 6 the most recent find is from September. Very odd.
nothing to worry about all that matters is your LDL cholesterol level.

Yes, that is exactly what the TV person said. Finally, someone who actually speaks to the substance of the thread.In reality, most of us get too much omega-6’s in our popular foods. Omega-6’s can be found abundantly in many of our common vegetable cooking oils: soybean oil, sunflower oil, canola oil and corn oil (but not olive oil). They’re also common ingredients in many of the foods we consume, which is why most of us have a heavily imbalanced ratio of omega-6’s to 3’s. Also why you wont find supplements of omega-6 alone ... they are almost always sold in combination omega 3/6/9.
So, Omega 6 is good for your heart health?The news in case you haven't noticed its 90% b.s, and the remaining 10% is half or 1/4 or less truth.
Try to stick to real research papers that are not myopic.

Go ahead, stuff yourself with Omega 6. I could care less.I am more than ungrateful, I am saying, as is the American Heart Association, and the Mayo Clinic...that you are, again, full of shit.
