You can get your omega-3 to 6 ratio as low as possible.
In an ideal world, one-to-one.
Mine's at three right now.
I try hard to get it down, but you know, it's tough when you're traveling.
You have a steak, you know, the animal's fed corn, so it's got a high omega-6 ratio.
So it's hard to get it down to one-to-one.
But if you look at a lot of the studies around longevity, people who have very low levels of omega-6s tend to live longer.
Wow.
And be healthier.
And so you see this in like Okinawa and all these different parts of the world where kind of like the blue zones where you have these centenarians.
And one common theme is very, very high three to six ratios and more threes and sixes.
Omega threes are anti-inflammatory.
Omega sixes are inflammatory.
So you want to cut out your diet every way.
Your body can make some of the sixes, but you get enough laces.
You don't need a lot of sixes.
And if you have too much, you have inflammation.
So I took my HSCRP, which is inflammation marker from 3.7 down to like 1.3, which is really, really good.
So I cut out seed oils and I cut out high fructose corn syrup.
Yeah, last month.
