This episode will shed light on impacts of imbalanced ratios of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids, more particularly a high ratio, is associated with an increased risk of various chronic diseases. This is primarily due to the differing effects these fatty acids have on the body. Omega-3 fatty acids possess anti-inflammatory properties, while omega-6 fatty acids are generally considered to be less anti-inflammatory or even pro-inflammatory in excess. A high omega-6/omega-3 ratio can promote inflammation and negatively impact gene expression, contributing to the development of conditions like cardiovascular disease, cancer, obesity, and autoimmune disorders.
