Today's edition of BBC Radio 4's The Food Programme dealt with Omega 3's and 6's. One item of particular interest to us was that Omega 6's cause inflammation when out of balance with the Omega 3's, as they are in most US and UK diets. There is now general scientific agreement about this

The Listen Again facility is not available yet but here's the addy.

Very interesting programme with some great recipes on the web page. I will be trying Bashed Cucumber.
There's not much else apart from eggs that I can legally beat up and then enjoy eating :lol:

Cheers

Very interesting Clare, thank you for sharing. Don't think I could "bash" a cucumber......like them too well. Have you tried "sunomono"? A japanese cucumber marinated salad. Very good if you haven't tried it. If you want the recipe, let me know. One of the gluten free foods I don't have to adjust.
