Essential Fatty Acids
Top 5 Essential Fatty Acids
Strictly speaking, essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats that the body cannot produce on its own and need to be supplied via diet. Omega-3s and omega-6s are the two types of essential fatty acids that most people know about. However, not all essential fatty acids are polyunsaturated. Monoenoic fatty acids are sometimes classified as essential, including the omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and the omega-6 linolenic acid (LNA).
- Complete essential fatty acids
Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are fats that are very important nutrients for health. Because the body cannot produce them, they must be ingested through diet or supplementation. EFAs are present in every cell in your body and are key to the normal growth and function of cells, muscles, nerves, and organs. According to estimates, as many as 80 percent of Americans do not ingest enough EFAs; the result is a deficiency that may result in serious problems including heart disease and diabetes. Omega-6 EFAs are more common in our diets than omega-3 EFAs, but both types are necessary for a healthy diet.
- Flax Oil (1000 mg, Organic)
Flaxseed oil is one of nature’s richest plant sources of essential fatty acids (EFAs). Flaxseed oil is rich in Omega-3 and supportive but not conclusive research shows that the consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.
- Flaxseed Oil
Flaxseed oil is one of nature’s richest plant sources of essential fatty acids (EFAs). Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). In the body, ALA is converted into two other, more bioavailable fatty acids — eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The American Heart Association has endorsed omega-3 fatty acids as good for the heart.
- Super Omega-3 Enteric Coated
Heart health is a primary benefit of Omega-3 EFAs. The nutrient is so effective at supporting heart health that the American Heart Association endorses the inclusion of Omega-3 EFAs in the diet. Our fish oil is molecularly distilled to remove PCBs, dioxins, and heavy metals like lead and mercury. This measure also reduces the oxidation of the oil and helps keep it fresh and stable.
- Liver Detox Formula
The liver plays a key role in waste disposal, metabolism, and nutrient management. Over time, the liver is bombarded with pollutants, allergens, and toxins. Sometimes the liver can become congested due to overworking and become toxic, resulting in health problems in other parts of the body. Vitabase Liver Detox Formula is a liquid supplement containing herbs traditionally used for liver detoxification. A good liver detox can help support liver function and digestive health. The seven herbs in this formula are organically grown.
