What if Omega-6 to Omega-3 Ratio Results Are High?
A high omega-6 to omega-3 ratio indicates that the diet contains more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3 fatty acids. This pattern is often associated with a higher risk of health conditions linked to inflammation and heart disease.
This ratio is commonly higher when overall food intake includes more processed foods, which are typically high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3 fatty acids.
Foods often associated with higher omega-3 intake include fatty fish, nuts, seeds, and certain oils. Some foods contain both omega-3s and omega-6s; flaxseed is one example that is sometimes used when discussing dietary balance between these fats.
What if Omega-6 to Omega-3 Ratio Results Are Low?
A lower omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratio is generally seen as favourable and is associated with a lower risk of many chronic diseases.
