>Thought omega-6 was good for you.
The human body requires a small amount of omega-6; a diet that completely lacks omega-6 would be harmful and potentially fatal. But modern Western diets contain an excessive amount of omega-6, which scientists are beginning to realize is bad for human health. Typical Western diets contain too little omega-3, so supplementing with fish oil or eating more fatty fish is usually a good thing.
