Keep your cell membranes flowing with Omega 3 1000mg!

Alpha-linolenic acid is an essential fatty acid in the omega-3 family. Just like cis-linoleic acid, only plants are able to synthesize it and few food sources contain it. However our body is able to convert α-linolenic acid into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

The latter are present in fish such as anchovies, salmon, sardines, oils (rapeseed, nuts, ect.) And are used in many biological functions.

These polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3) are an integral part of the membrane constituents and therefore modules their activities (receptors, enzymes, etc.). According to different epidemiological studies, the population consumes insufficiently omega-3 and far too much omega-6 (sunflower oil, margarines, etc.). This imbalance could have adverse health consequences (cardiac pathology, neurobiological and psychiatric diseases, etc.).

It is important to monitor the content of various pollutants contained in fatty fish (good source of omega-3), such as heavy metals, and persistent organic pollutants.
