TweetLets look at the different categories of fatty acids ...
Vegetable oils contain polyunsaturated fatty acids called Omega-6, yet fish contains a polyunsaturated fatty acid called Omega-3.
Both these different types of Omegas have different affects on the body. Omega-3s come in a variety of potencies with the two most effective ones being EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA's (docosahexanoic acid).
Where is it found?
EPA's and DHA's are found in cold-water fish such as salmon, trout, mackerel, and tuna
Why is it needed :
Omega-3s boost immunity and assist in the regulation of blood pressure and blood clotting.
