What are omega-3 fatty acids?

OMEGA-3 acids is a common name for a group of compounds belonging to essential unsaturated fatty acids (EFA).

OMEGA-3 acids are…

ESSENTIAL  - because, unlike saturated fatty acids, the body cannot produce them itself, but they are needed at many levels of its functioning. Therefore, they must be provided in appropriate amounts in food.

UNSATURATED  - which means that the molecules of these acids contain at least one double bond between carbon atoms in the carbon chain. The suffix '3' means that the last such double bond is located at the third carbon atom from the end of the chain.

The three main OMEGA-3 acids that play the most important role in healthy eating are:

• ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid)
• EPA (Eicosapentaeonic Acid)
• DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)

OMEGA-3 or OMEGA-6?

Providing both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids is very important for the proper functioning of the body. However, it is important to maintain their appropriate ratio in the diet. The optimal ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 is 1:4.

In the diet of Western societies (European or American), this balance is significantly shifted towards excessive consumption of omega 6 acids. This is because the main part of the diet are products of animal origin, in which saturated fatty acids predominate, as well as omega-6 acids. However, little fish, seafood and plant products (oils), which are a natural source of omega 3 acids, are consumed.

The consequence of this style of eating is a disruption of the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, which is 1:15 or even 1:20. The result of maintaining this condition for a longer period of time is the appearance of pro-inflammatory compounds in the body, resulting from excessive amounts of omega-6 acids.

The point is not to eliminate either fatty acids from your diet, but to eat a balanced diet, providing both omega-3 and omega-6 acids in a proportion as close to the optimal one as possible. Due to dietary habits rooted in our culture, it is much more difficult to maintain the supply of omega-3 fatty acids at an appropriate level than omega-6 fatty acids, which is why in many cases omega-3 supplementation is recommended.

Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) have a beneficial effect on health and their supplementation is recommended for people at all stages of life:

• DHA and EPA contribute to the proper functioning of the heart*
• DHA helps maintain proper vision*
• DHA contributes to maintaining normal brain functions*

*the beneficial effect occurs when consuming 250 mg of EPA and DHA per day
