Kent,

If small amounts of omega-6 oils are essential, why should we avoid them from any source, if that source is healthy e.g., organic, processed at low temperature, oxygen-free environment? Aren't the omega-6 fats in borage oil structurally identical to the omega-6 fats in the other sources you mention?

P.S. -- Flax seed oil is usually eaten for its omega-3 oil content, isn't it?
