Speciality » Essential Fatty Acids
Oil from fish contains eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA); both are omega-3 fatty acids. Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are fatty acids that cannot be made within the body from other components and therefore must be obtained from the diet. There are two types of EFAs: omega-3 and omega-6. Almost all the polyunsaturated fat in the human diet is from EFA. Some of the food sources of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are fish and shellfish, flaxseed (linseed), hemp oil, soya oil, canola (rapeseed) oil, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, leafy vegetables, and walnuts.

Information about Natures Aid Omega 3 Rich Fish Oil:
Although fish oils have been taken for many years by fishing communities it is as recent as the 1960s when the full potential of fish oils was revealed. two Danish scientists, Jorn Dyerberg and H.O Bang travelled to Greenland to study Eskimos in their own environment. These two scientists discovered that although Eskimos ate large quantities of fat they did not suffer heart problems, this was eventually attributed to the high proportion of fish in their diets because of the unique nature of the polyunsaturated fatty acids found in many cold water fish.
