30 second mayonnaise

Homemade mayonnaise and other salad dressings help ensure you won't load up on too many omega-6 fatty acids. While omega-6 fats are actually beneficial, you can have too much of a good thing if you eat processed foods. See what nutritionist Mikki Willden has to say about it and about balancing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in her Wellbeing column here.
