Loren Cordain on omega 6/omega 3 ratio
---"Data from our laboratory shows that the omega 6/omega 3 (N6/N3) ratio
for wild herbivore muscle tissue is between 3-4:1 whereas the lowest
N6/N3ratio occurs in the brain of wild herbivores and is about 1:1."
If the ratio in game meat is 3-4:1 how could it be 2:1 in grainfed cows?
See what feeding grains to salmon does (from USDA):
Wild atlantic salmon:
Linoleic acid (18:2/n6) Gms : 0.172 2.7% 3.5%
Linolenic acid(18:3/n3) Gms : 0.295 18.4% 24.6%
Farmed salmon (atlantic):
Linoleic acid (18:2/n6) Gms : 0.586 9.2% 12.0%
Linolenic acid(18:3/n3) Gms : 0.094 5.9% 7.8%
What is most intresting with this is the fact that this data is not
readily available to us so that we can get a good answer! It ought
to be easy to find for everyone, and also pronted on the food
packages in the shops.
