If I take fish oil with a salty meal, the improvement in my concentration, articulacy and mood is noticeably larger than when I take fish oil with a zero salt breakfast of muesli and full fat milk. I have noticed this effect many times. Anyone else? I have found taking omega 3 fish oil supplements more effective when taken with salty food than when taken with unsalted food.

I haven't yet deliberately varied omega-6 but I expect to in the future. I've heard of Michael Pollan but not Mondello. See the post called The Israeli Paradox for information about omega-6.

Since omega -6 helps the blood clot and is part of the imflammatory process (CHD), I am interested in the ratio. Do you test both? What methodology do you use? have you heard of Mondello or Michael Pollan? seth,

I can only say that 3 tablespoons/day of flaxseed oil seems to produce better results than 2 tablespoons/day. I haven’t gotten far enough to answer your excellent questions.
