The AHA is full of shit. Monosaturated fats and even saturated fats are endlessly better for you than Omega6 PUFAs.
Your daily fat intake should be more olive oil based, get some omega3s from fish 1-2x a week, and a moderate amount saturated fats.
Omega6s are fine in the levels you get in Olive Oil (there's a little), or in nuts (macademia nuts being the lowest in omega6s) and say the odd avocado.
To eat them in nthe levels that the West eats them in is toxic and there are endless studies about Omega6s being inflammatory and even contributing to insulin resistance in conjunction with sugar (yes.. a fat encouraging diabetes).
