Omega Six The Devils Fat

I have written a book that looks at the impact of EXCESS Omega 6 and lack of Omega 3 on health and behaviour. The subject has become a passion. It will be the diet subject of the next decade. The book is very much less technical than these posts. It is not light reading but has been understood by women from 20 to 80 who have absolutely no technical medical or scientific background. Even self confessed "non readers" have been sufficiently intrigued to spend the time to look at it, once they have dipped into the book.

The material specifically on breast cancer is no where near as comprehensive as this thread, and the book is very much wider, but helps you get a wider perspective of why this is such an important health topic and how it all fits together.

You can read a few pages on Amazon and my web site.

This is a subject that is particularly fundamental to women as women make 10 times as much DHA as men do. DHA is fundamental to women's health and arguably helps define what it is to be a woman.

"GOSH I didn't know that" an expression of genuine surprise and interest, is a generic common reaction of women to some of the material.

The message is simple balance the Omega 3s and 6s. To really appreciate why it is so important you really need to understand a little of why. There are lighter books but this one should leave you in no doubt how important the correct balance of EFAs is to mental and physical health at every level.
