“As for omega-6s, they’re healthy, too—especially a type of omega-6 called GLA, which is found in evening primrose and borage oil. These are the ones important for making our sex hormones. In her practice, Dana often sees young women with amenorrhea—their period stops. She finds that replacing these fats by adding either a supplement or increasing the fat in their diets does the trick. Their periods miraculously return with no other interventions. This is a more common problem than you would expect, and we are not talking about the eating-disorder patients who lose their periods. Many people still subscribe to the low-fat-diet lifestyle.”
