Is Arachidonic Acid Supplementation Needed?

What is your opinion on this Prae,surely if we eat meat we get enough?

[Praetorian]

Our diet is skewed in favour of omega 6 fatty acids...in other words we generally eat too much omega 6 and not enough omega 3...thus adding more is not necessary.

Why do some feel we need borage oil or evening primrose oil if we get enough 6?

[Praetorian]

Because people only see the list of benefits as per marketing. As you posted if our diets were better we wouldnt need to supplement. Eat grass fed organic meat, wild meats, wild caught fish, organic fruits and vegetables, limit omega 6 polyunsaturates, increase omega 3's, etc
