Fatty acids are the basic structural units of lipids. Lipid is the general term that refers to the dietary fat. The body can synthesize many fatty acids. However, those that can not be synthesized in adequate must be obtained from dietary amounts, and are termed essential fatty acids (EFA / EFAs). The fatty acids may be saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated depending on how the basic chain carbon molecules is combined with hydrogen. The two essential fatty acids called linoleic acid (Omega-3 fatty acid) and linoleic acid (Omega-6 fatty acid). The terms Omega-3 and Omega-6, which is referred to the carbon atom of the fatty acid molecule in which the first double bond is located. Many scientists and nutritionists stressthat the Western diet is rich in Omega-6 fatty acid, while consumption is low in Omega-3 fatty acid. Including diet foods rich in Omega-3 and reducing the consumption of red meat, hydrogenated oils and other saturated fats we protect ourselves from many of the degenerative diseases today. Essential fatty acids are found in abundance in fish oils and unadulterated seed oils such as rapeseed, sunflower and safflower oil. Flaxseed oil is an exceptional oil containing both types of essential fats in appreciable quantities. Flax also known as linseed, is the richest natural source of Omega-3 fatty acid. Fatty fish cold salt water as herring, haddock, cod, mackerel, sardines and anchovies are also rich in Omega-3 polyunsaturated and are the source for fish oil supplements. It has been recognized that essential fatty acids have many beneficial effects on the organism and influences hormone production and immune and cardiovascular health. Deficiencies in several of these fatty acids have been associated with hormonal imbalance and degenerative diseases. Fatty acids maintain the structure and function of cell membranes and subcellular membranes. Transport, degradation and removal of cholesterol from the organism is regulated by the AGEs. Furthermore prostaglandins, substancessimilar to the body's hormones are influenced by fatty acids Omega-3 and Omega-6 through a series of enzyme-dependent reactions. The role of prostaglandins is to promote the contraction of smooth muscle, lower blood pressure and regulate gastric secretions also have some influence on other hormones. The essential fatty acids are important for normal growth, especially in the blood vessels and nerves. They also keep the skin and other tissues young and flexible due to its lubricating ability. Among the most important fatty acids would include the following: linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, gamma linolenic acid (GLA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) acid.
