Weight Gain and Omega-6 Fats
Omega-3 expert Joyce Nettleton, D.Sc., presents the second in a series of reports on news from the recent fat-science summit meeting
by Joyce A. Nettleton, D.Sc.
Both were attended by the world’s leading fatty acid research scientists, and featured a wealth of new findings and insights.
The second of the two meetings was 2010 gathering of the International Society for Study of Fats & Lipids (ISSFAL), held in Maastricht, the Netherlands.
We asked expert attendee Joyce Nettleton, D.Sc., to summarize the ISSFAL presentations that addressed various topics, including brain, heart, and metabolic health.
Dr. Nettleton is a widely published expert on omega-3 science and seafood health-nutrition topics. She issues regular fatty acid science updates in her great Fats of Life (consumer-oriented) and PUFA (scientist-oriented) e-newsletters.
Her first report concerned omega-3s’ apparent or potential impacts on metabolism, with implications for the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the diabetes it often forecasts. (See “Omega-3 Summit Report, Part 1”.)
Tonight, we present the second of her reports, with this one focused on the role of dietary omega-6 fats in weight gain and control.
Omega-6 fats constitute far more of American’s fat intake than they did just 200 years ago, and much more than ...

Roasted Sablefish with Glazed Baby Carrots & Lemon-Butter-Caper Sauce
Today’s recipe comes to us from Matt Wright, who as he says, is “an English bloke” now living in the Pacific Northwest where he pursues his passion to cook, photograph, and write about simple, clean food.
Matt especially loves to prepare beautiful seafood dishes, and you can check them out, along with Matt's other delicious recipes, at his WrightFood blog.
Here’s how Matt describes his sablefish recipe, which he demonstrates in a video posted below the recipe.
“Slow roasting of fish is something that I don’t see a lot of people doing at home. I have no idea why. This is the absolute perfect technique for oily fish like sablefish (black cod) or salmon. It is also the least ...

Canola Oil Controversy: A Reader’s Note and Our Response
We called canola high in omega-6 fats, and that was an overstatement; We maintain that, despite their omega-3 content, canola and soy oils should be shunned
In short, we noted that, compared to the diets we adapted to over millennia, Americans now consume far too many omega-6 fats, and too few omega-3 fats.
Until about 200 years ago, most people consumed omega-6 and omega-3 fats in ratios that averaged 3:1 (i.e., three parts omega-6 fats to one part omega-3 fats).
That historically low omega-6/omega-3 ratio is still seen in the diets of remote hunter-gatherer societies, which tend to have far lower rates of ...

Omega-3s: Oxidation Victim or Vanquisher?
Clinical trial further debunks the bogus claim that omega-3 fish fats are easily damaged (oxidized) by free radicals in the body, and require antioxidant escorts
by Craig Weatherby
When you take fish oil, do its omega-3 fats generate damaging free radicals in your body?
The short answer is “no” … despite what some (under-informed) health writers and sellers of fish oil may say.
The myth began because the omega-3 fatty acids found in seafood – EPA and DHA – oxidize relatively rapidly when exposed to air. (Oxidized omega-3s emit the “fishy” smell that signals a spoiled, unhealthful state.)
Years ago, some lab studies suggested that consuming concentrated amounts of fish fats from supplements might raise body levels of the unstable oxygen molecules called free radicals.
Free radicals tend to oxidize other molecules in the body, and this ...

Omega-3 Gurus Savor Vital Choice Salmon
A huge, shining king salmon from Vital Choice was the dinner centerpiece at London's omega-3 scientific summit
by Randy Hartnell
Last month, we attended two gatherings of the world’s leading omega-3 and fatty acid scientists.
The first, called “A Celebration of DHA”, was convened at London's Royal Society of Medicine by legendary neuro-scientist Michael Crawford, Ph.D., who’s spent decades studying the two omega-3s (EPA and DHA).
EPA and DHA are both essential to human life. While the body can make both (very inefficiently) from plant-form omega-3s, “pre-formed” EPA and DHA are found only in ...
