Complementary Nutrients: A healthy diet. HOW IT WORKS: Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are nutrients that we must get from foods or dietary supplements. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in cold-water fish, support a healthy cardiovascular system and are important for proper brain development and function. Omega-6 fatty acids, found in borage oil, support a healthy immune system. Omega-9 fatty acids, found in olive oil, are not considered essential, but are still extremely important for health. They help support heart health and healthy cholesterol levels. DID YOU KNOW… In the body, essential fatty acids are primarily used to produce hormone-like substances that regulate a wide range of functions, including blood pressure, blood clotting, blood lipid levels, the immune response, and the infl ammation response to injury and infection. RESEARCH: Countless studies confirm that omega-3, -6, and -9 fatty acids have a wide spectrum of beneficial effects on health. Population studies demonstrate that people who consume a diet rich in these fatty acids have significantly reduced risk of developing heart disease.
