Dr. Artemis P. Simopoulos is responsible for some of the most innovative and unique research on evolutionary aspects of diet and essential fatty acids, including historical changes in the omega-3/ omega-6 ratio and its influence on our physiology and disease risk. She has also been a pioneer in a wide variety of diverse but related topics, such as novel sources of omega 3, phytochemicals, and nutrigenomics. This remarkable interview explores her discoveries, debunks nutritional dogma, and paves a way for ‘healthy agriculture, healthy nutrition, and healthy people.’
