Frequently Asked Questions
What is EPA?
Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) is an omega-3 fatty acid and precursor to important cell signaling molecules. EPA promotes cardiovascular and brain health.
What is DHA?
Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that supports the structure and function of the brain, retina, and cardiovascular system.
Why is it important to have a balanced omega-3 to omega-6 ratio?
Research suggests that a 4:1 ratio of omega-6s to omega-3s supports optimal health. Western diets often come closer to a 20:1 ratio, with many omega-6s coming from processed and fast foods, which can promote inflammation in the body and negatively impact overall health and wellness.
What exactly are omega-3s?
Omega-3s include docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), and are found in fatty fish, nuts, and seeds. They support the body’s inflammatory response, healthy cholesterol levels, plus heart, brain, joint, and eye health.
What exactly are omega-6s?
Omega-6s include linoleic acid (LA), gamma-linoleic acid (GLA), and arachidonic acid (AA), and are found in nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils. They promote metabolic, reproductive, brain, hair, skin, nail, and bone health.
