DOES THIS SUPPLEMENT WORK AS WELL AS A $1500/MONTH DRUG? This is not the first time that we have seen that essential fatty acids are quite potent at suppressing inflammation. In this particular study (an animal study) we see that alpha linolenic acid (the same fats found in flaxseed, walnuts, chia, salba…) helps to suppress TNF-alpha expression, which is the same target of the very expensive class of drugs that block the action of TNF-alpha (Remicade, Humira, Enbrel). This is not to suggest that one replaces the other, but it again shows that essential fatty acids being stripped from our heavily processed diets may have a strong tendency to shift our bodies towards inflammation.
