In my opinion, omega-3 fatty acids are arguably the most import nutrient. Without a significantly improved omega-3/omega-6 balance you will not fully resolve your issues with inflammation and the health issues associated with inflammation.

Inflammation is a vital healing process in your body. Inflammation is not a disease. Inflammation is a state. Your body is in an inflamed condition.

Fix the problem and inflammation will subside. So your goal should be to achieve and maintain a healthy inflammatory response.

Infants are bathed in protective, beneficial microflora as they pass through their mother’s birth canal. As a result, babies delivered vaginally are bathed with friendly, protective Bifido bacteria. In contrast, babies delivered by caesarian section (C-section) become bathed in the bacteria from their environment. When this occurs, babies lose out on the benefits that B. infantis supplies. They miss the natural boost to their defenses, and don't receive the digestive support for their inexperienced gastrointestinal tract–not the best start to lifelong health.
