OMEGA - 3

Omega 3 Fatty acid is called as Miracle Fat. Its wide range of benefits with regards to its magic in our body. How ever Indian Diet is lacking Omega 3 on a daily basis.

Your body doesn't have any enzyme to synthesize to create Omega 3 by its own.

It is a polyunsaturated fatty acid, i.e. they contain more than one double bond in their chemical structure.

In food it is found in 3 forms,

  • EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid)

  • DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)

  • ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid)

Benefits of Omega - 3

Very Simple...

Its more important to learn which component of Omega-3 is more beneficial..

Well the answer is more than ALA, researchers have seen EPA & DHA being more beneficial for human body comparatively.

How do I get it on a daily basis?

Walnuts

Unfortunately Vegetar -ians get Omega-3 in the form of ALA by consuming Flax Seeds, Chia Seeds, Walnuts, Green leafy vegetables, soybean oil, but lack a lot with EPA & DHA.
