It is estimated that as many as 8 out of 10 people aren't getting enough essential fatty acids (EFAs) from their diet. Most of us have heard of Omega 3 but Omega 6 & Omega 9 are also incredibly important. 

Why Are Omega Fatty Acids so Important?

We use omega fatty acids in every cell of our body but as we age our Omega levels decline which causes issues in the body: 

1. Brain: The brain is made up of fatty acids and cholesterol. As you age your body's fatty acid levels drop causing the brain to shrink, your brain leading to poor brain function and mental decline. Boosting your body's levels of vital Omega 3 can prevent brain decline and improve cognitive ability. 

2. Heart: Omega 3, 6 & 9 regulates cholesterol, breaks down blood clots, reduces blood pressure, and also reduces the number of harmful fats in the blood which contributes to the risk of heart attacks. Among Esmikos from Greenland, who ate mainly oily fish, a lower incidence of heart disease was recorded. By stark contrast, in Britain, an average of 200,000 people die of heart disease each year. 

3. Joints: Omega fatty acids have been shown to increase the amount of calcium you absorb from your gut and improve the strength of your bones and synthesis of bone collagen and reduce pain and inflammation in joint diseases such as arthritis.

4. Immunity: Omega fatty acids improve the immune system function by reducing inflammation which is related to the development of nearly every illness and helps to maintain water balance.

5. Eyes:  DHA (an Omega 3 fatty acid) is a major structural component of your eyes’ retinas and as we age its levels reduce which can lead to a decline in vision. Omega 3 supplements have been shown to reduce macular (eye) degeneration and help prevent vision from becoming impaired. 

6. PMS: EFAs are vital for hormone function. Women with low EFA levels are more likely to experience period pains.   

7. Skin: EFAs are needed in your cell membranes. When they're in short supply, you are more likely to experience dry, itchy skin.
