Fats or lipids have always been part of the human diet. If there are fats that are not good for health, some are essential to the body. Lack of knowledge of this nutritional family pushes us to consume less and less and therefore to reduce certain fats essential for health.
Fatty acids, what are they?
Lipids are made up of two large families of fatty acids :
-Saturated fatty acids found mainly in animal fats such as meat or cheese, vegetable fats, but also increasingly in industrial ready meals. These fats are often not recommended because, consumed in excess, they bring bad cholesterol.
-Unsaturated fatty acids break down into 2 groups : fats mono-unsaturated like omega-9 found mainly in omega-9 olive oil, and polyunsaturated fats which are omega-3 and 6. Omega-3s are found in certain vegetable oils (olive oil, rapeseed oil, hemp, flax, etc.) and especially in fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, herring, etc.). These unsaturated fatty acids, essential for health, are called "essential" because the human body does not know how to synthesize them.
What are omega-3s used for?
Among the omega-3s, there are specific fatty acids: EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) present in fatty fish, vegetable oils and certain green vegetables.
These essential fatty acids must be provided daily to the body which does not know how to manufacture them. It is therefore necessary to find them in the diet or in supplementation. These fatty acids are essential for health, especially for the normal function of the brain, the heart and also for vision.
Assets
This new formula from Forever Arctic Sea contains more omega-3s. Its dosage is much higher in EPA (2.5 times more) and DHA (3.7 times more) thanks to fish and squid oils.
>Omega-3 dosed fish oil
Marine fats are “good fats” that contain a lot of EPA and DHA. They thus contribute to normal heart function. Forever Arctic Sea has an important source which allows a very good supply of omega-3.
>Squid oil dosed in omega-3
Squid oil has a high omega-3 content, especially DHA. Forever Arctic Sea new formula contains a reinforced dose of DHA provided by squid oil which promotes the normal functioning of the brain and du cœur, and also the maintenance of normal vision.
>Olive oil dosed in oleic acid
Olive oil is very rich in oleic acid, acide gras mono-unsaturated.
