Omega-3s, unsaturated fats, are called essential fatty acids because the body cannot synthesize them and must therefore come from food. They help cell membranes and sheaths that isolate nerves to build up, provide adequate blood clotting, and allow muscles to contract and relax. Research in recent years has established that in addition to their contribution to the normal functioning of the body, some have therapeutic properties. They can drastically reduce the risk of heart problems and other serious illnesses, as well as stem the symptoms of various conditions.
The two types of omega-3s associated with improved health are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The best source of DHA and EPA is fish, but they are also available as supplements. In fact, the average lipid intake of the French is within the range of the recommended nutritional intake recommendations (between 35 and 40%). But in detail, we observe that this consumption is not well balanced between omega 3, 6 and 9 and that the French always eat too much saturated fatty acids bad for cardiovascular health.
Always too much saturated fatty acids and still not enough omega 3 and 9. If the French consume enough lipids and mostly fill up with omega 6, they have not yet succeeded in eliminating the excess of acids saturated fat and integrate the right dosage of omega 3 and omega 9 into their diet.
