GOODNESS OF ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) are fats which cannot be synthesized or manufactured by the Human body but need to be obtained from outside sources - either through food or supplements.
Omega-3(Linolenic acid) and Omega-6(Linoleic acid) fatty acids are both classes of polyunsaturated fatty acids that are referred to as essential to the body as they support the cellular, nervous, metabolic and cardiovascular systems in a more efficient manner. However, these are not synthesized by the body. Unlike omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, omega-9 fatty acids(Oleic acid) are monounsaturated fats, produced by the body and also are beneficial when they are obtained in food from vegetable and animal fats.
The techniques utilized in processing of foods and oils destroys majority of essential fatty acids and this imbalance in ratio of Omega 3:Omega 6 produces a physiological burden on the body. Today’s processed and junk foods are full of unhealthy saturated and trans-fats which have detrimental effect on our body. On the other hand, healthy fats are critical to maintain optimum bodily functions.
To get sufficient omega-3 to balance the ratio you would need to eat at least three to four servings of salmon fish per week. Omega-6 fatty acid is present in plant based foods like vegetable oils.It is harder to get sufficient alpha- linolenic acid (ALA).
Flaxseed oil is one of the world's richest sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, containing more than double the amount of Omega-3 found in an equal quantity of fish oils. Flaxseed oil also contains Omega-6 fatty acids. The Omega-3 fatty acids in flaxseed oil are not identical to those found in fish oil. Flaxseed oil contains Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA), while fish contains Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). The body is able to convert ALA into EPA and DHA. We need more omega-3 than omega-6 - in a ratio of about 2:1.
Essential fatty acids (EFAs) perform many functions. Some of the benefits which have been demonstrated by research are:-
- They are an important part of cell membranes as they maintain their fluidity and chemical activity.
- They regulate oxygen use, electron transportation and energy production
- They support the production of secretions of digestive enzymes.
- They help make the lubricants that allow joints to move effectively and also possess ant-inflammatory action.
- They help transport cholesterol in the blood and thus reduce the risk of Atherosclerosis and Coronary Heart Disease.
- They are needed by the tissues of the brain, retina, adrenal glands and testes.
- They help balance the immune system and prevent allergies by their anti-inflammatory effect.
- They ensure proper nerve transmission thereby supporting healthy brain and memory functions.
- They also help in reducing the Menopausal symptoms.
