Re omega three six.
From your post diet is part of your strategy. Whilst omega three is widely recognised as benificail at all sorts of levels, it is also important to balance omega three and six intake.
This is still hotly debated territory, but omega six whilst essential is a percusor of many of the inflamatory pathways, and hence it is argued the need to restrict and balance six with threes.
See the posts on this site on omega three , six flaxseed etc.
This can take a little effort to find out how much omega six and three is in various food in general terms. Eg virgin cold pressed olive oil is about 10% omega six, walnuts a lot higher etc, so as a general rule you have to watch how much you take in and add flax etc if you are going to balance the omega threes and sixes.
As usual it is complex and potentially particularly for those on medication. Looking up the NCBI library and using the search engine can be helpful for seeing if any trials of omega three and various medications have been done. It is always best to discuss magor dietary changes with your advisors.
