Asthma

Because asthma is an inflammatory condition it was thought that Fish Oil could be of benefit. To date, the best evidence points to an Omega-6/Omega-3 imbalance as a factor in the growing incidence of asthma in Western nations. As more Omega-6's in the diet lead to fewer Omega-3s in the body, increasing Omega-3 consumption is likely to help. Decreasing intake of the Omega-6s at the same time would be advisable.
