maybe in this administration we'll actually get some funding to do that study, right? So this is the thing. I will freely say there is no randomized double-blind controlled trial to prove that, but I'm connecting the dots with the research that's out there. There are mechanistic studies.

There are studies to suggest that this happens in both humans and in primates, and so I think it's very reasonable to do that.

Because nature designs it perfectly. How can we go? You can't go wrong eating simple whole foods. It's just unprocessed animal foods, unprocessed plant foods. You'll be great.

So omega-3 is also polyunsaturated. And omega-3 versus omega-6 is just a nomenclature designation based upon where the first double bond is based from the end of the molecule. So if you look at a fatty acid, it's a long chain of carbons with a carboxylic acid group on the end.

And the first desaturation point, which is a double bond, if it's close to the end of the molecule, if it's three carbons from the end, we call it an omega-3. If it's six carbons from the end, we call it an omega-6. Omega-3s are in much smaller amounts in our diets than omega-6s. And need to be in higher amounts, yeah. Well, they probably should be in higher amounts for most of us, right?
