Ωμέγα-3

As more and more people have become concerned with their general health, many are considering supplementing the essential fatty acids needed on a daily basis into their diet. One such essential fatty acid is the omega-3 fatty acid. This polyunsaturated fatty acid contains a carbon-carbon bond in the omega-3 position of its molecular structure. Alpha linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA) belong to the omega-3 fatty acid group. Since the body cannot produce omega-3 fatty acids on its own, you should be getting them from food sources or supplementation. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in foods such as wild salmon, mackerel, tuna fish, lamb, flax seeds, hemp, kiwi fruit and walnuts. By getting your omega-3 fatty acids through food or supplementation, you can support brain and cardiovascular health!*
