The Omega Balance:
Modern nutritional concepts point towards the importance of the omega-6 to omega-3 balance in health maintenance. Omega-6 fatty acids are abundant in Western diets and these fats are health-giving only when consumed in the correct ratio with omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA It is not uncommon for the average dietary ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids to be in the ranges of 10 to I or more. Scientific precedent implies that a ratio of close as possible as 1 to 1 is more desirable for health.

Understanding the cascade of compounds that are synthesized from essential fatty acids (Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids) is a task for even the most informed health care giver. The most common types of omega 6 fatty acids are the precursor molecules linoleic acid and its end products of arachidonic acid and adrenic acid. Arachidonic acid (omega-6) and EPA (omega-3) are the main "intermediary" precursors of hormones and complex compounds called eicosanoids of which prostaglandins and leukotrienes are common examples.

The eicosanoids signal a wide variety of body functions including blood clotting, inflammation and blood pressure regulation. Linolenate is the omega-3 fatty acid precursor found in some plants, such as, soybeans flax and canola, and it can be used by mammalian tissues to generate the eicosanoid EPA, which can be converted to DHA. Eicosapentanoic acid tends to result in the production of prostaglandins of types that are anti-inflammatory and anti-clotting in their actions. In simplified terms, EPA (an active omega-3 fatty acid) pushes the balance of production of lipid mediators towards more "friendly" types of elcosanoids and resulting prostaglandins, compared to arachidonic acid omega 6 fatty acid) . EPA is an anti-inflammatory.

There is no crossover between the pathways of metabolism active omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, which are generated from linoleic and ilnolenic acid respectively. However, the relative amounts of generated eiosanoids do exert influences on each other. Thus, omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids generate signaling compounds (lipid mediators or eicosanoids) with widely differing properties and actions on body structure and function. When the omega balance is "out of whack, " many body functions may change for the worse.
