Is your body getting enough essential fats?

OMEGA 3, 6, and 9 are beneficial fats known as essential fatty acids (EFAs). These fats are essential for your health. Your body cannot produce them, so they must come from your diet.

They are required for proper development and function of the brain and nervous system. They help reduce inflammation and pain, and improve skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. EFAs support thyroid and adrenal function and also support the cardiovascular system, helping to reduce blood pressure and cholesterol. EFAs are also important for hormone production supporting both PMT and Menopausal symptoms. Your skin, hair and nails all need EFAs and will glow when you include them in your diet daily. Who would be without EFAs?

They are found in nuts, sesame, sunflower, chia, flax and hemp seeds, as well as avocado. Oily fish, and good quality oils like olive oil, coconut oil, and evening primrose oil are also good sources. Some people find it difficult to include these foods in their diet, but you do need a supply of them every single day. So, if you’re not eating these types of foods then you will benefit from taking a supplement.

There are many supplements and combinations available to provide you with essential fatty acids (EFAs). Fish oil supplements contain Omega 3, Evening Primrose oil provides Omega 6, Flax seeds are high in Omega 3, and Olive oil contains Omega 9.

If you’re vegetarian or vegan, on a plant based diet or you simply dislike fish oil supplements then Udo’s Choice Ultimate Oil Blend is the perfect choice.
