Guest guest Posted August 30, 2003 Report Share Posted August 30, 2003 Okay, now, Omega-6 fatty acids are to be avoided like the plague, due to them REVERSING all the good Omega-3 fatty acids do, such as lowering cholesterol and removing free radicals. Why would you WANT Omega-6s? Is this a special diet or something?

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 Hmm, maybe I said it backwards.....will have to go look into this after my arm 'comes back' to me--at any rate....how about this: I do know that it raises HDL and lowers the LDL. & please tell me that I didn't say *that* one backwards.............. it's a good thing.... " trust me " <wicked grin> Even veganaise uses it in their higher priced version. actually, it's because of this that I decided to look into it.
