Omega 6 is at the heart of inflammation in the body as most of the down stream chemical products are inflammatory.

Omega 3 reduces CRP when compared to Omega 6

(The initial comment in this trial needs qualifying - the Omega 6 family is much more inflammatory than the omega 3 family and other anti inflammatories are made by Omega 3s through other pathways (resolvins and protectins) and the Omega 3s block Omega 6 activity)
