Omega-3s are among the polyunsaturated fatty acids and their 3 main forms are ALA (Alpha Linolenic Acid), DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid).
DHA and EPA are found in abundance in fatty fish, while ALA is found in specific plant oils such as flaxseed, pumpkin seed and hemp seeds.
However, our body can produce a very small amount of DHA and EPA from ALA (only 6%), which means that we must regularly consume a large amount of fatty fish on a weekly basis.
Omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role throughout the life span of an average person. They are needed for the smooth development of the body, for maintaining good cardiovascular function and brain function.
By extension, adequate intake of omega 3 fats on a daily basis is something that concerns all groups of the general population: children in adolescence, pregnant women, athletes, students, middle-aged and elderly people.
Insufficient intake of omega 3 fats over the long term can undermine health. As omega 3 fats are found in the cell membranes of all tissues of the body, their role in overall health is very broad.
They contribute to good heart and brain health, the function of the eyes, the central nervous system, the kidneys, the liver and all other systems.
Other properties are associated with smooth muscle contraction, the contraction and dilation of blood vessels and the treatment of inflammation.
Some of the benefits of omega 3 fatty acids are:
- They contribute to smooth brain development.
- They reduce inflammation and pain.
- Improve cardiovascular health.
- Reduce the chances of heart attack or stroke.
- Contribute to the treatment of depression and mental disorders.
- Improve fertility in both men and women.
- Contribute to the health of the fetus and the smooth progress of pregnancy.
- Reduce the chances of developing childhood disorders.
- Reduce the chances of developing osteoporosis.
- Reduce the chances of developing cancer in the intestine, breast and prostate.
