If you are considering trying to balance omega threes and sixes you must also consider what omega three and six you are getting in your food.
One of the main sources of omega six in the western diet is vegetable oils many of which contain high levels 50 - 70%.
Vegetable oils are extensively used in processed foods.
There are quite a few posts on this site on the subject. If you cannot find them by searching please come back.
I have previously read about Orlistat but it is a while and my memory is vague so I cannot comment other than saying it is very complex and heblaj01 has cogently raised some of the issues I recall.
What is certain is that fats are central and very powerful factors in the bodies metabolism.
All significant dietary changes should be discussed with your advisors, and more so where involving products that alter the metabolism.
