3:00 How to balance your omega-fatty acid ratio
5:25 Learn more about cod liver oil!
Let's talk about how to balance your ratio of omega-fatty acids and why you need to do this in the first place.
The average person's diet is way too high in omega-6 fatty acids and too low in omega-3 fatty acids. The ideal ratio of omega-6 fatty acids to omega-3 fatty acids is 1:1. However, the average ratio of these fatty acids for Americans is about 20:1.
If you're deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, you could have cognitive issues or problems with your eyes. Men may also experience problems with low testosterone and fertility.
Having high omega-6 fatty acids and low omega-3 fatty acids may potentially lead to:
• Stiff red blood cells
• Thick blood
• Obesity (visceral fat)
• Insulin resistance or diabetes
• Inflammation
• Thrombus
• Vasospasm
• Vasoconstriction
The best and easiest way to balance your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is to increase your omega-3 fatty acids. Adding omega-3 fatty acids to your diet is even more important than removing the omega-6 fatty acids.
Both fish oil and cod liver oil are great sources of omega-3 fatty acids. But, cod liver oil also has vitamin D and vitamin A. Algae is an excellent vegan source of omega-3 fatty acids.
Here are a few more ways to balance this ratio:
• Replace your salad dressing with olive oil
• Avoid fried foods from restaurants
• Consume fatty fish 2 to 3 times per week
• Consume grass-fed beef
• Limit the amount of chicken and grain-fed animal products you consume
• Consume walnuts

Thanks Dr Berg 🌸 I always try to balance my children's diet in this way, yet products that have higher Omega 6 than Omega 3 are more common unfortunately.
This may be your most vital presentation ever! For me anything other than cod liver oil unfortunately but I'm overwhelmingly grateful to you dr Berg
Thank you so much Dr. Berg for this priceless video and info.
You're welcome. Thank you for your comment!
Thank you so much Dr. Berg! God bless you!
Mindblowing information, thank you Dr Berg. Much appreciated 👌Nothing better than good health
You r really a font of knowledge n I appreciate the info communicated. Thank you
I have suspected that this imbalance is what is throwing me off, I am having very serious problem with this. Stopped eating fried carbs already because I suspected this. But I had no idea about the chicken, I have been leaning on that for a long time now, worried about beef.
@@juliemcalister2557 Ohh, another tip!!! I bought Flax seed oil as well, but you can't cook with it. But it's an oil that I use after I am done cooking, or just add to something cold. The only thing that comes in second is Olive oil, however I already use that.
Worried about beef? Why in the world would you be worried about the most healthy meat on planet earth?
@@malikrath9503 Flax is full of antinutrients. Just use rendered animal fats, like beef tallow or duck fat.
@@Truth15freedom not all natural flavor has MSG make sure you read the labels on everything.
@@miltonbates6425 If beef has been fed grain it has a much higher omega 6 content
Was not aware of the lengths that most commercial growers are willing to allow in order to make a sale. The take away here is sourcing integrity. Terrific explanation
This is so important. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You're most welcome.
You video is so educational and the way you explain is so clear, concise and interesting.
Glad that you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching!
Straight to the points....love it....2:12 he puts that lil humor too which i like 👍🏻
You have helped me A lot with nutrition!!! You make it easy and interesting to understand. Thanks for sharing the truth .
This is a really good video. Thanks!!
Thanks Dr. Berg. You are such an inspiration ✨️
Happy to help!
Hello! Doc . Thank you for the info . God bless !
“…. well other than that you’re perfectly fine” 😂😂😂😂 can’t stop laughing
😂
😂😂
Very nice explain sir God bless you and your family
Love your channel doc
Great and super useful video.
Thanks Dr. Berg
So glad to be of help!
Thanks for the free information!
Anytime!
I have severally explained this information to family and friends..,thank you Dr Berg.
Thank you for helping us 🙏🙏🙏
Very informative and powerful information as always. My girlfriend has been having some major pain in the arm after working out and her personal trainer recommended bee venom acupuncture(we live in Korea). The doctor we saw was very informative and explained everything to her regarding the body (it reminded me of you since you're more on the side of educating your patients/audience), including how the venom causes a reaction to the immune system thus I guess increasing blood flow etc... He gave a very small and diluted dosage and although she got a normal reaction (just like a bee sting), after about 20 mins. The pain was pretty much gone, he also recommended perilla oil as a high source of omega 3. Just thought I'd share this and maybe something to look into. As always, thank you for taking the time to make these videos and help us live longer and more abundant lives.
Thank u
Hi and thank you once again. I was just about yo say there's a good video about olive oil and how the olives are, even when their rancid their still put into the mixture and sold to us health people and we think we are doing well, when all the time we are still getting conned. Thank you once again.
I can't believe the difference in my health alone with your information about everything you have spoken about especially this past year , I don't do the actual keto diet but I do eat what I see in your pictures, at first I had high potassium levels, and just boiled the sweet potatoes. All is good now though #Happydays.
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and insights into the world of healthy living .
Blessings to You and Yours. 🌟🌻⚘🌹🌷
WOW !!! good to see those numbers , had no idea. THANKS
Excellent walk-through.... shared of course... ✅and for anyone new, Dr Berg's info is spot on... I am a new person since eating healthy!
Thank you very much. Appreciate the help in sharing the video.
Thank you for this valuable information!
Most welcome! Glad you found it useful!
Excellent and comprehensive content. This video explain well about the omegas. Thank you Dr Berg.I have been consciously trying to increase my omega 3.
Wonderful! You're very welcome.
Thanks for posting a new video
Hey Dr Berg! Can you please make a video about Interstitial cystitis and how to manage symptoms? There's a lot of IC sufferers who'd benefit from your advice because your insight into health is amazing.
Here's a video that may help!

Please make sure you see a pelvic floor physiotherapist. You can be misdiagnosed with IC when it is a structural issue.
Interesting numbers. Thanks mucho
Wow! Thank you for this vital info!
Most welcome!
this video enlighten me about the effect of omega-3 and omega-6, thanks doc🙌🏻
I often take grass-fed source butter and (real) olive oil with me when I go to restaurants. They are usually willing to use my substitutes.
That's wonderful. Good job!
That is actually badass. kudos
Really? That's cool
I m not sure but Google says olive oil 10:1 omega three. So it's more omega 6 then 3. Where is the healthy? But is healthier compare to other oils that are worse in ratio
The omegas are polyunsaturated fats, and extra virgin olive oil is mostly monounsaturated which is the best fat
Thank you for your informative videos. I have a question related to a vid you did on gelatin recently. In addition to the gelatin benefits you discussed in that video, does gelatin have muscle building benefits as well? Thank you in advance.
Thanks is very very tiny word for you...🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻...Just Because of you are knowledge I could able to reverse my medical conditions.
Precious information Nobody is ever going to tell us this especially the Doctors We still have doctors who tell us egg yolks cause high cholesterol and blood pressure Same for red meats . They will advise us to consume lean meats and skimmed milk and no fats .
I wonder who these people really are.
As children I remember my Mother giving us cod liver oil syrup especially in winter as protection against colds and flu.
Your information dear Sir is invaluable.
Thank you.
Grassfed beef is amazing, but you also should eat the beef liver to get the good omega 6 fat, arachidonic acid. We need ARA for brain myelin, to lower blood pressure, to prevent cataracts, and many other things.
He’s talking about increasing 3.
If you are experiencing inflammation, you should limit your arachidonic acid intake.
@@anymice That's pretty much the KETO diet foods then?
@@eyeYQ2 Yes! The keto diet, with all the animal fat, is probably one of the best diets for actually getting essential nutrients like ARA and DHA. I also avoid nuts, peanuts, and seeds because they're pretty high in linoleic acid, which we really need to avoid, plus they're not very digestible.
@@Felicia594 Eating fish is the way to get DHA, but a slightly higher amount of arachidonic acid to DHA, which I've read should be 4 to 1, is also very important for your diet. The omega 6 fat to avoid is linoleic acid, which doesn't turn into arachidonic acid in humans in any appreciable amount, but just oxidizes into free radicals, harming the body.
Thanx dear doctor!
Great information - thanks!
Most welcome! Glad you found it useful.
I appreciate this information. My concern about fish is that they live in highly polluted waters filled with heavy metals, toxic chemicals, drugs and plastics. I try to choose wild and small fish but I am still very wary. I take omega 3 fish oils from brands that I trust.
You can definitely consume "Atlantic" mackerel unlimited.
Good stuff! TnX.
I love your videos! You are the best!
Thank you! That actually meant a lot.
Good morning Dr Berg 👍🏾
Thank you Dr.BERG
Anytime!
Thanks very much for this 😀 👍 😊 🙏
You're very welcome!
I recommend to take flaxseed(O6 1:O3 4) or chia seed(O6 1:O3 3)
we can make up for the lack of O3 and can keep ideal 1:1 ratio
Unfortunately, the omega 3 found in flaxseeds, chia seeds, hemp, and walnuts is ALA. The main problem with ALA is that to have the good effects attributed to omega 3s, it must be converted by a limited supply of enzymes into EPA and DHA. As a result, only a small fraction of it has omega-3's effects, say 10%-15%, maybe less. The remaining 85%-90% gets burned up as energy or metabolized in other ways. So in terms of omega-3 "power," a tablespoon of flaxseed oil is worth about 700 milligrams (mg) of EPA and DHA instead of the 7 grams listed on the label might imply. It also contains omega 6, which might throw you off balance if you’re looking for a good omega 3 : omega 6 ratio. If you're in need of omega 3s but are concerned about mercury, salmon, pollock, and catfish are all low in mercury, and canned light tuna tends to be lower in mercury than albacore ("white") tuna. There are also great EPA and DHA supplements sourced from algae which are of course vegan friendly.
very useful again🤓, thank you 🙏🏼.
Most welcome!
This is so interesting 🤔!
Good video Doc. I`m going to have to budget in farm raised chicken from the local farmer`s market a bit more often over commercial chicken. I never watched your chicken video and how they`re raised because I DID NOT want to know but you snuck this info in on me and now i`m skeeved.
Good explain
Thanks Dr Berg for all the information
My question you are very write the chicken also gave me lots of problems
The chicken was the biggest eye opener... Thank you so much
You're very welcome.
Awesome video
I have a sinking feeling that I can only be safe by eating green leafy vegetables (steamed). The kind of fish rich in omega 3 harder to find in my place though (there is fish oil supplements everywhere, fortunately). And while I can be sure that beef nearby was grass feed, that kind of meat is just too expensive... Even the egg, as the cheapest animal source protein become a bit suspicious.
It's FAR easier to pay with $ than with your well being.( health)
But then you realize that all vegetables contain lectins and oxalates and stop eating them altogether too, hence carnivore.
Try kelp and seaweed. That's where the fish get it.
@@HaohmaruHL Though a few things are hard to get enough of on carnivore. Carnivore-_based_ diet would probably be superior for most. And carbs are useful for when you are bulking, not that it's healthy to do so
Don't look down and be depressed. Look up and you will be blessed.
Great Proverb, thanks!
As Spaniard I can tell that you should be having EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL. This is cold pressed. And price must be over 6/7USD 1L (just did EUR USD conversion).
Except, virtually all oils labeled "olive" are $6-7 USD/L, so that's not really helpful.
should be about twelve now because of inflation
@@jesusmywholehaschanged I live in Spain and the price ranges from €5 to €6 depending on the harvest yield and it is very easy to find.
@@edurevelfood I'm talking about in the US.
@@zissler1 should take out a student loan to pay for it
You also need to talk about the Prostaglandins E1, E2, E3 and their role in healing the body. E1 and E2 come from Linoleic Acid (Omega 6) and E3 comes from Alpha Linolenic Acid (Omega 3). E1 and E3 are Anti-inflammation and E2 is Pro-inflammation. This balance is necessary for the body to properly heal areas that are inflamed and then be called off when the job is finished.
Are you saying that grain-fed products are healthy?
@@n0426 Technically, grass-fed and finished products would be healthier since it has a better balance of Omega 3 with less Omega 6 as compared to grain-fed.
@@BiggieCheese45 the question is are all grains GMO?
Interesting,thanks!
Anytime!
Good Morning , Dr.Berg 🎑
Thank you so much for sharing this Interesting Information with us. I sure do appreciate you . God bless you all , Have a wonderful weekend !

Hemp seed oil contains the ratio of 3:1 omega 6 to omega 3. This is considered a near perfect ratio, but of course, you would also be consuming additional omega 6 from other sources. However, hemp seed oil also contains a significant amount of GLA omega 6 and vitamin E, which may counter the pro-inflammatory effects of too much linoleic acid.
Yes! I believe it does.
Sorry for the long comment.
I took 6 capsules a day & started to get better. Within 6 weeks I’d lost 10 kg & gone off meds, including antidepressants, thyroxine, asthma puffer, high blood pressure, pain & sleep meds.
I saw a video on adrenal fatigue caused by delayed food sensitivities. It sounded a lot like “my” fibromyalgia. It said the diet for that was 30 ml’s of cold pressed hemp seed oil for 6 weeks to reduce inflammation.
I experimented with different amounts of oil & different foods, then started looking on google.
Grain affects memory. It causes “brain fog”.
Grain, Dairy and Genetically Modified food causes inflammation. Inflammation causes disease. Possibly all disease.
Raw cannabis seed;ALA and plant; THCa reduce inflammation immediately.
(Too much plant can be toxic but not fatal.
6 grams gave me a headache)
I also used the dictionary. I found that most if not all words have more than one meaning.
Grain & cane come from a grass plant.
Cannabis is known as grass.
We have cannabinoid receptors in our brains.
I found these “fast’s”
*TAKE 40 ML’s COLD PRESSED HEMP SEED OIL FOR 40 DAYS. (You don’t need to fast. You won’t be able to. Continue taking it even if you feel unwell. It will pass. You will get hungry. He (She) was.
After that;
*EAT 6 to 10 GRAMS OF RAW CANNABIS AND DRINK RED WINE MIXED WITH WATER. IN 1 DAY. Alcohol increases the affects of herbs and vice versa. Drink red wine for the sake of the stomach. Do not get drunk for that’s debauchery.
*IT ALSO WORKS(walks) ON just WATER.
*SLEEP AND RISE (wake up, understand, see) AFTER 3 DAYS.
*WASH YOUR FACE AND ANOINT YOUR HEAD. (I put it on my temples & my headache was gone within 5 minutes. Put it in before you get headache. )
(After a couple of weeks I had what felt like hart palpations. A side effect listed on my meds. After 8 + years my blood test said my thyroid level was too high & my medication was reduced. When it happened again,
I stopped taking them. 4 years ago.
I thought 12 + years of antidepressants we actually making me cranky, I went cold turkey. Don’t do that. It’s brutal. Reduce instead. Hemp thins the blood, don’t take blood thinners.)
Take before photos. You will look different.
The recipe for anointing oil didn’t work very well.
But this recipe does.
These ingredients are all anti inflammatory, work well for for pain & healing.
Powder,
3 gm Raw Cannabis
(Fresh works
best. I only had
dried.)
3 gm Ceylon
Cinnamon
6 gm Cassia Senna
6 gm Myrrh
Stir in
90 ml’s Red Wine
Let soak for an
hour or so until it
congeals a bit.
“make it like
mud”
Use a stick
mixer & blend in
90 ml’s of cold pressed hemp seed oil.
Fresh works best. Store in the freezer.
A different kind of fast;
*PUT NOTHING IN YOUR BODY FOR 2 DAYS.
You must be empty or it won’t work properly.
It takes approximately 2 days for food to pass through the body.
*EAT 6 TO 10 GRAMS OF RAW CANNABIS AND DRINK RED WINE MUXED WITH WATER OR JUST WATER IN 1 DAY (or half a day)
*SLEEP AND RISE AFTER 3
*USE ANOINTING OIL.
The proof is in doing.
Everyday i eat 3 pasture raised eggs with very orange yolk, pure happiness
Excellent!
It is just sad that all the good stuff is so expensive.
Lord ain`t that the truth!
Oh gosh I love the beard Doc!
🦾🦾
Thanks Dr. Berg.
You mentioned some time that the ratio in commerial eggs is 29:1, and in another video that you eat for eggs a day. I assume you consume the organic or pasture eggs.
If I consume the commercial eggs, how many eggs should I consume then? Thanks!
Thank you . Love fish. Great video
i have a question. Im getting conflicting info about caged commercial egg nutritional value vs free range vs pasture raised. i have learned a LOT about all the differences. i loved that some studies said free range and pasture raised 3x more vit d, 7x more beta carotene, and 4x more vit e. then other studies or stories i pulled up said caged/commercial are nearly the same, which sounds wrong to me. it makes sense that birds that eat bugs and get outside will have more nutrients. whats your thoughts on differing studies? i dont know what to trust as im thinking about paying much more for pasture eggs (they get out way more than free range) but if i dont have to pay 2 to 3x more for that, if theres really not a known diff, i would keep getting the more affordable. im cutting way back on carbs and i love eggs, so im trying to decide what to buy. i hope you see my msg and reply, thx. :-)
Thank you Dr Berg : )

it depends on the type of seeds. Flax seeds or canola have higher level of Omega 3 and lower level of Omega 6.
How about the chips that are fried in avocado oil? The ingredients are Potatoes, avocado oil and sea salt.
Dr Berg, may I know what is the ratio for pork?
Thank You
Dr. Berg: Do you ever use flax seed meal in your smoothies? Why or why not? Thank you!
Thanks for this critical info Dr. Berg! I do supplement daily with Omega 3 and most of my diet consists of leafy greens. I also generously use flaxseeds in my green smoothies. I don't eat eggs, meat or fish. So my question is, can you be DEFICIENT in Omega 6, and if so are there any health detriments to this? WE APPRECIATE YOU! 💕
Actually just watched your earlier video which answered my question. 👍🏽
@@bluebutterflywellness2273 which video?
Youre OK just dont use that many flaxseeds in your diet because they're very high in strogens. I saw that on one of dr Bergs videos while researching on which seeds I should be consuming.
Hello Dr Berg, I wanted to know if Apple Cedar Vinegar reduces Platelets. If so how should I use it for other benefits of ACV
Does Omega 3 - Omega 6 Ratio include ALA? Because the conversion rate of ALA to EPA and DHA is pretty abysmal.
Ok I agree with the doctor but it's too expensive to get all this things.Please help us in how to get them with less expense
I have been working with intestinal issues for 2 years. Tests showed leaky gut and an imbalance of bad/good bacteria although not specfically sibo. One thing I've noted is shitty potato chips wreck me. Like sour cream and onion or bbq, stuff like that. I can tolerate organic salt potato chips though. Very interesting vid.
The "amounts" of what is consumed matters most but this video left that out.. For example you might choose between consuming 5 grams of some seed oil as dressing in your salad (70:1) or to eat 150 grams of some grains (20:1)... Just based on the number you would pick the grains BUT in reality in this example alone seed oil was the healthier choice because 5 gr x 70 causes 350 units of imbalance... whereas 150 gr x 20 would cause 3000 units of imbalance... Long story short: we must always consider the amounts together with the ratios if we are going to make correct decisions. And 1:1 is not optimal either. The goal should be a ratio between 1:4 to 1:6, again: considered WITH the amounts that you are going to consume!
I'm in Europe and have no clue where to buy quality omega-3 capsules with DHA and EPA.. Holland & Barrett for example use fillers and thickening agents. (Not in for our health but in for the $$$) Do you know a good website or maybe sell it yourself in the future?
Good advice, but many of these food options are difficult to acquire in continental America. Even worse at a reasonable price, either being priced x2-x3 or its in very bad condition because of low volume of sales. Its even worse if you live in a so-called food desert.
Would free range chickens that eat a natural diet be better? Also would the chicken breast be better than the fattier parts of the meat? Just curious.
I unfortunately don't like red meat that much, but I eat salmon like 4 times a week plus other fish and then the other days is usually chicken. =/
thank you
Most welcome
Dr. Berg, what about wheat germ oil for vitamin E?
Hy can we use mustered oil in cooking
God Bless Everyone
Thank you for helping me understand all this. You always make it easier to learn. I do have a question: It seems that there is more omega 6 in foods than omega 3, so will we always have a excess amount of omega 6? Thanks!
Most of us really need to up our omega-3 intake and decrease our omega-6 intake. Ideally, the ratio should be closer to 1 to 1. That will help us to stay healthier.
Omega 6s are found in things like poultry, nuts, vegetable oils, grains, canola oil, soybean oil, and more. So you will want to eat less of those, and more of the food sources of DHA, EPA, and ALA.

The easiest way to balance good/bad is to stop eating so much bad stuff 😉 you can't take an omega 3 with a bucket of fries and expect it to do much!
True
So much easier to take a pill though 😂
You are wonderful! Smart . A good teacher.
Hi.. Thank you for putting this out there It's helped me a lot but I think it's okay to eat chicken every so often or even a Crisco fried dinner as long as you're not having this a lot and also I have a question..
Q . They ? Who are they? " They " in your video you address some ghost person as they or ghost people
I can't identify them who are you talking about?
Again this was an awesome video.
Based on those ratios of common healthy foods, it’s not possible to balance them 1:1. Even fish is 1:1, so a perfect diet of fish, eggs, vegetables, and grass fed beef would still result in a ratio of 2:1 or more
Yeah, at least 3:1 is very good if you can achieve it.
Thank you. Olive oil perplexes many of us at the grocery store.
Really good info👏. Is there any products by dr berg good for adhd, concentration and studying in general

Thanks for this video! I have an extreme fish allergy, so it looks like I can never achieve the 1:1 ratio, can I just use algae oil?
So I started keto I did well .. I have my own hens but they are grain fed and I feed them leafy greens too . So I'm guessing the eggs I've been eating are loaded with O6!!
I have had the worst inflammation in my lower back and left leg since mid June.
I'll end up pescatarian at this rate!!
Are you eating many nuts, seeds, peanuts, or chocolate on keto? These foods actually gave me lower back pain, perhaps from high omega 6's and they're hard to digest, because the pain went away after I stopped eating them. I do eat a lot of grain-fed chicken, but it's no problem for me. So, it might be something else.
I think it’s worth mentioning that pastured-raised chicken has a better omega 6:3 ratio than conventional, grain-fed or free range chicken (7.2:1). They also have much higher Vitamin D3, twice the levels of Vitamin E, and less cholesterol. The reason is simple: pasture-raised methods provide key elements including fresh vegetation, bugs, exercise, and sunshine. These sound like basic things but simply aren't available to large-scale, factory farm-produced chickens. There is no room for those things in the "10k birds in a house" model. How healthy would a person be if deprived of salads, exercise, and sunshine? Chicken are no different…
Could we have a video to learn about Arachidonic acid too next time please?
Would organic flax meal, taken in the morning about 3 TBSP as a high omega 3, fiber, and prebiotic be a good idea to up and balance this ratio???
" Other than that - You're perfectly fine" 😆🤭 love it x x
