Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Brain Health


Listen Later

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids that are required by the human body. There are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids:

  1. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) Found in flaxseed oil and chia seed oil
  2. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
  3. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
  4. In short: ALA⇒ EPA⇒ DHA
  5. Your body isn’t good at producing omega-3s. That’s why they’re called essential fatty acids—you have to get them from food or supplements.

    In this solo episode I will: 
    1. Break down what Omega 3 fatty acids are.

    2. Talk about 2 studies that were done on the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids and the brain

    3. Dosage requirements needed to achieve these desired results 

    4. Where to source your Omega'3's from
