Omega 3s can help in the short term, because they have an "anti-inflammatory" effect, which is usually just another way of saying that the substance counteracts the actions of AA metabolites, generated due to minor stressors.
I don't see any benefit from eating fatty fish at all, except for the possible "anti-inflammatory" effect (most likely due to not eating a more "inflammatory" food item, rather than the omega 3s - would need controlled experiments to determine this for sure).
Yes, I eliminate all PUFAs as much as is practical for me. I try to consume no omega 3s, except for unavoidable trace amounts. I don't want biochemically unstable molecules in my body via the diet, period.
Just keep reading, not only here, but also another good site is raypeat.com, and you can also search pubmed.com once you begin to understand how the "pieces of the puzzle fit together." I also read sciencedaily.com each day. |
