WHAT ARE OMEGA-3s?

      Omega-3s (short for omega-3 fatty acids) are a kind of fat found in foods and in the human body. They are also sold as dietary supplements.

 Omega-3 fatty acids are found in foods, such as fish and flaxseed, and in dietary supplements, such as fish oil,nuts and seeds.

TYPES OF OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS:

 The three main omega-3 fatty acids are

✓ Alpha linolenic acid (ALA),

✓Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), 

✓Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

 ALA is found mainly in plant oils such as flaxseed, soybean, and canola oils. DHA and EPA are found in fish and other seafood.

  ALA is an essential fatty acid, meaning that your body can't make it, so you must get it from the foods and beverages you consume.

  Your body can convert some ALA into EPA and then to DHA, but only in very small amounts.

 Therefore, getting EPA and DHA from foods (and dietary supplements if you take them) is the only practical way to increase levels of these omega-3 fatty acids in your body.

 Omega-3s are important components of the membranes that surround each cell in your body. DHA levels are especially high in retina (eye), brain, and sperm cells. 

 Omega-3s also provide calories to give your body energy and have many functions in your heart, blood vessels, lungs, immune system, and endocrine system (the network of hormone producing glands).
