Omega3 fatty acid is a substance contained in animals and plants such as deep-sea fish and seaweed
Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are essential fatty acids for the human body, which cannot be synthesized by the human body and can only be ingested through external food.
Omega-3 fatty acids have many benefits to the human body. They can resist inflammation, strengthen the brain, and improve concentration and memory. They are important nutrients for protecting the health of the human nervous system and retina.
Regarding the efficacy of Omega-3, the World Health Organization, the American Heart Association, the International Society for the Study of Fatty Acids and Lipids, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and many other government and professional organizations have made instructions.
There are three main types of Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids in food: ALA, EPA, and DHA.
ALA mainly exists in plant foods, EPA mainly comes from marine animals, and the main source of DHA is fish, shrimp, seafood and deep-sea fish.
