"The ratio need not be perfect, just get slightly less omega 6 to omega 3. You dont need to fufill 100% RDA's either. We evolved eating no way near the amount in quantity of the omegas that standard dieters do today. In analyses of early humans…"

"I googled the omega ratio and Dr. Graham. I found this video, where he recommends a 1:1 ratio. It doesn't really answer my initial question about Cronometer, but I think I'm headed in the right…"

"Thanks for the reply. Does Dr. Graham mention a ratio in his book? I'm not seeing it if he does. It just seems odd to me that the ratio would be so far off on cronometer, but the percentages are slightly above the recommended…"

Confused about omega 3 and 6 ratio

I was on Cronometer trying to figure out a basic diet to stick to, and according to Cronometer, to achieve 108% of omega-3 and 108% of omega-6, I end up with 1.2 g of omega-3 and 13 g of omega-6, which roughly puts me at a 1:10 ratio. The fat is also a little higher than I would like to achieve this ratio. From what I've read on here, the ideal ratio would be 1:1. What am I missing? Should I decrease the amount of omega-6?See More

"there seems to be a board game for kids 2-6 called fur and feathers it is created by a group called Animal Matters. I do not know if it is any good but might be worth a look into."

"Not sure probably too young but Dr Dolittle doesn't eat animals."

DVDs for kids?

My daughter is 3 years old. She has been raised as a lacto-ovo vegetarian her entire life, although I am cutting down on a lot of that for her as I try to transition to an 80-10-10 lifestyle, myself. We have reached a point that she is starting to express interest in eating "dead animals." (I am the ONLY vegetarian in her life, so sometimes it feels like we are the only ones in the world who don't eat meat.) She doesn't quite have a grasp on death and/or killing, other than the occasional…See More
