The dose makes the POISON

For every known nutrient required for life, there is a dose that falls into a sweet spot that is neither too high nor too low.

For LA weed only 1-2 grams per day. Yet today, we are consuming about 29g/day. This is far beyond the dose that will make LA a toxin that will devastate our health.

Even if we consumed seed oils (ugh), we need only 1 tsp to get our needed LA omega-6. If we consumed 3 oz of grass fed beef, we would get enough.

The requirement for omega-3 ALA is even less unless, of course, you are consuming 29 g or omega-6 LA in your diet.

But, just because these fats are essential does not mean we should get more.

If you simply eat real food, you would get your essential fatty acids in the right quantity 😉.
