Ingesting a 4:1 food source will never, by itself, bring someone back into the optimal range however, hydrogenated oils as you point out, they will indeed improve, and realistically, when choosing nuts at the supermarket, walnuts would be better than most others. However one cannot eat walnuts as omega-3 therapy and expect to achieve the optimal n6:n3 ratio (as is often believed)Istvan 21:54, 23 February 2006 (UTC) I'm still looking for pointers to original hydrogenated oils research showing that the problem is the ratio between ω-3 and ω-6, rather than just a shortage of ω-3. I've seen the hydrogenated oils claim that the ratio is the problem in some reasonably reputable sources, such as Medline. But they don't provide a cite for their claim. On the other hand, I've seen cites like this, saying that ω-3 is cardioprotective irrespective of ω-6 status. Further, what's called an excess of ω-6 seems to me to just be an excess of arachadoic acid. If somebody's got some cites showing that dietary lineolate or GLA from vegetable sources (that is, arachadonic acid free sources) are inflammatory, then please post them.
