Seed Oils, Plant Based Diets & Chronic Inflammation (New Study)

Seed Oils, Plant Based Diets & Chronic Inflammation (New Study)

Author: Mike Mutzel shares interviews with Peter Attia, Jason Fung, Stan Efferding, September 11, 2023 Duration: 16:06

A new study finds vegan dieters have higher concentrations of omega-6 fatty acids and lower quantities of health-promoting omega-3 fatty acids, including pro-resolving lipid mediators, in their cell membranes when compared to omnivores.

Resolvins are bioactive lipids made from dietary omega-3 fatty acids that help resolve inflammation.

Resolvins were not detected in the plasma of any vegan subjects, whereas nine out of twenty-four omnivores had detectable concentrations.

These new findings have important implications for heart, brain and prenatal health.
