The Omega-3 Miracle

One of our advisors, Dr Garry Gordon, has written the ultimate treatise on omega-3 essential fatty acids. I’ve never before come across such a thorough yet readable tract on these lipids.
Dr Gordon, like many progressive physicians who see nutrition as the foundation of health and wellness, states very clearly that much of our illness today has come from our diets lacking the basic essentials.

Omega-3 EFAs (essential fatty acids) were once part of everyone’s diets. The eggs we ate came from healthy chickens and contained them; the grains we ate contained them; the fish we eat still contain them (some fish, not all); and many of the vegetables we ate contained them. Today, our diets consist of processed foods. Because omega-3 EFAs are unstable, their shelf life is short, and for a country more interested in marketing than in health, they are very unprofitable.

Corn has become our oil of choice, and sadly, during the fifties, as Dr Gordon points out, the corn oil industry convinced the medical community that corn oils were the best oils to put in our bodies.
Wrong. As Dr Gordon adamantly states: Corn is the most dangerous food on the market. Many nutritionists agree with him.
