The modern Western diets are characterized by a greater amount of lipids, saturated fats, trans fatty acids and Omega 6 fatty acids, while the content of Omega 3 consumed is very low.

Omega3 and Omega6 are essential and their consumption must be balanced for the body to get the most out of them. Specialists say the excess of Omega 6 causes the blood to become thicker and circulation problems arise.

WHAT IS OMEGA3?

  • Reduces the excess of Omega6 and cholesterol in blood.
  • Improves blood pressure.
  • Aids to treat insomnia, stress or anxiety.
  • Aids to lower triglyceride levels.

Omega3 are essential fatty acids acting in many vital processes inside our body. They are recognized as essential because we need them and our body do not produce them on itself; reason why, we must get them through food.

Omega3 fats in the body are found in high concentrations in the brain and the nervous system, in the eye retina and brain cortex primarily.

  • Improves the immunological system.
  • Aids to the good fetal brain development.
  • Contributes to the formation of cell membranes
  • Acts as an energy reserve
  • Aids to treat hyperactivity in children
  • Improves the correct formation of the eye retina
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CORRECT BALANCE BETWEEN OMEGA3 AND OMEGA6.

In the body, both Omegas share the same metabolic process in charge of degrading them into prostanoids, EPA and DHA in case of Omega3. Thus, and excess in one kind of fats will prevent for the synthesis of the other kind to take place.

In our diet, we generally find abundant Omega6, for example

and an excess in it is directly related with the production of arachidonic acid and thereby an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease.

When we supplement the diet with Omega3, this oil moves the arachidonic acid from the tissues and exerts its therapeutic action regulating inflammation.

CHOLESTEROL, IS IT NECESSARY OR NOT?

Cholesterol is necessary for the proper functioning of our body as well as for the formation of hormones or the body's ability to absorb fat. But, an excess of cholesterol promotes a deterioration in health: risk of vascular diseases such as heart attacks or brain hemorrhage, or atherosclerosis (the buildup on the walls of the arteries).
