Insulin levels rise in the OptiMind body when you eat lots of sugars and refined carbohydrates; glucagon levels rise when you eat foods that contain balanced amounts of fat and protein.Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), the omega-3 fat found in fish, also suppresses delta-5-desaturase production. In other words: sugars and refined carbohydrates increase AA and "bad" prostaglandin production, while a diet rich in healthy proteins, fats, and deep-water fish helps to funnel DGLA towards the production of "good" prostaglandins. http://www.healthcaresups.com/optimind/
