No idea ~ probably need a Type II diabetes ping list, and that'd pick up most of them.

This is not a surprise. The body makes it's own "fat" out of whatever is eaten. If you eat carbs, it makes fat. If you eat protein, it makes fat. If you eat fat, it makes fat.

It seems that if you consume lots of Omega 3 fats, your body might well reduce the amount of Omega 6 fats it makes.

Lots of unknowns here.

If you overeat carbohydrates insulin will help store it away in fat cells.

Every diabetic knows that carbs must be controlled or you will die.

Can you tell me more about Omega-6 fats? I've been taking a fairly high dose of Omega-3 fats for about 6 weeks to help with depression and stress and I've found it to be pretty effective. What other benefits am I getting from the Omega-3?
