As Dr. Mercola has reported, there is evidence to support the hypothesis that omega-6 PUFAs have proadipogenic and prolipogenic properties, and it has been shown that exposure to a diet rich in omega-6 PUFAs during the first years of life is sufficient to program an increase in body fat mass in the offspring.

Excessive consumption of Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) versus deficiency of EPA and DHA and saturated fats such as lard, butter, coconut oil in modern diets: the disturbing factor of their “balanced antagonistic metabolic functions” in the body human. EPA and DHA play a role in the suppression of inflammation, gene expression, cell membrane fluidity/permeability, immune functionality, and intracellular/exocellular signaling.
