Please see references to PI3k in Greek Diet post.

Re stimulating immune system. I am just begining to try and get a minimal grasp on the subject of oxidation as part of the bodies defesive mechanisms.

On very limited knowledge and not much than straws in the wind I think it is important to understand the immune system is a potential double edge system.

When it is already overstimulated as might happen with permenant excess omega six there may be oxidative stress. Stimulation of the immune system in these circumstances may be bad news.

The ideal is that the immune system works when it is meant to and powers down to low level when it is not.

Part of the immune system is the production of super peroxides aldehydes etc.

My guess is these systems if they start over acting and are permenantly "on" in the absence of threat they are the start of oxidative stress, which can lad to telemore degredation and genetic compromise. See Greek Diet post.
