The importance of essential fatty acids
Essential fatty acids are fatty acids that our body needs but cannot produce itself. As a result, they have to be absorbed via the diet.
Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids. The best known are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). ALA is mainly found in vegetable oils while EPA and DHA are mainly present in fish and shellfish. The body can convert ALA to EPA and DHA, but this conversion is difficult, so it is better to take EPA and DHA directly.
A good ratio of omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids is extremely important. The Western diet results in a higher intake of omega-6 than omega-3. As a result, the ratio between these two types of fatty acids is no longer optimal. As a result, a higher intake of omega-3 fatty acids is recommended in many cases, in order to restore the balance.
EPA and DHA are natural ingredients with different properties
