Essential fatty acids (EFA) are healthy fats that the body needs but can't produce on its own. There are two fatty acids that are essential for human health, alpha-linolenic (also known as omega-3 fatty acids) and linoleic acid (omega-6).[1] The only way to get these nutrients is through a well-rounded diet.
Fish and fish oil supplements are the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Westerners tend to consume more omega-6s, found in poultry, eggs, and most vegetable oils, than omega-3s, which are abundant in fish and seafood sources. A diet low in omega-3s is thought to be a factor in the increased rate of heart disease in the U.S.
Omega-3 fatty acids
The omega-3 category consists of two sub-groups: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Consuming these healthy polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) are known to help reduce high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels, both increased risk factors for developing heart disease.
Fish oil
Fish oil supplements contain the omega-3 fatty acids that are so important for human health. If you get enough in your diet from whole foods — fish, primarily — supplementation may not be needed. If you don't consume omega-3s two to three times a week, you may want to take a fish oil supplement.
One serving of most fish oil supplements is sufficient for providing the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of EPA and DHA combined.
Benefits
Fish oil helps reduce risk of coronary artery disease, cardiac arrhythmia, type 2 diabetes, and elevated serum triglycerides. It also decreases risk of mortality and helps with depressive mood disorders.[2, 3]
DHA
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is beneficial for cognitive functions, neuromuscular control, and is the preferred omega-3 fatty acid for neural and retinal development.[4] Supplementing DHA with fish oil is a great way to maximize the benefits of both fatty acids.
EPA
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EHA) is credited for helping alleviate symptoms related to depressive mood disorders. The fatty acid also helps with sight and brain function. Taking EPA may slow the onset and progression of cognitive disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and dementia.[1, 8]
Studies demonstrate that fish oil supplementation provides physical and cognitive benefits throughout your life. Children benefit by the aid of brain and retinal development, and the elderly benefit by slowing deterioration of brain function — a normal part of the aging process.
Suggested supplementation
- To get your recommended dosage of EPA and DHA, we recommend taking a fish oil supplement, especially if your diet is not rich in seafood. NOW Foods produces a good EPA-only supplement — Super EPA. You can also try Carlson's EPA Gems.
Cod liver oil and krill oil
Cod liver oil supplements contain vitamins A and D, in addition to DHA and EPA. If you don't eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, and don't take a multivitamin, cod liver oil may be a good option for you.
Krill oil does not contain vitamins A or D. It was shown to be potentially more effective than other types of fish for boosting lipid metabolism in obese individuals.[10] Long-term consumption may increase fat loss for those who are overweight. Krill oil is much more potent for ridding the body of eicosanoids, which induce inflammation.[1] Low-grade chronic inflammation is a top heart disease factor in those who are otherwise healthy.
Try NOW Neptune Krill Oil or Jarrow Formulas' PhosphOmega Krill Oil.
Recommended dose
Healthy adults should get 500mg of fish oil daily (1:1 EPA to DHA ratio). Adults with heart disease should consume 1g each day, and those with high cholesterol and/or high blood pressure should take 3g to 4g.[17] The overall maximum dosage is 4g daily.
Omega-6 fatty acids
Omega-6 fatty acids are in vegetable oil, corn oil, soybean oil, nuts, and seeds. Most Americans tend to get their RDA of this fatty acid.[1]
Benefits
Omega-6 fatty acids help with brain health, particularly common aging disorders, heart health, and inflammation. The compound also helps build muscle.
Gamma linoleic acid (GLA)
Gamma linoleic acid (GLA) is a natural anti-inflammatory that helps relieve rheumatoid arthritis symptoms, reduces symptoms associated with eczema, and helps prevent cardiovascular illnesses.[12] GLA is an omega-6 fatty acid that can be synthesized in the body, but works better when supplemented in the diet.
Dosage varies by the condition GLA is used to treat:
| Health condition | Recommended GLA dose |
|---|---|
| Skin conditions | 360mg to 750mg daily |
| Pre-menstrual syndrome | 240mg to 320mg daily |
| Rheumatoid arthritis | 750mg to 2.8g daily for 6 to 12 months |
| Diabetic neuropathy | 480mg daily |
| High blood pressure | 1.3g daily |
| High cholesterol | Up to 2g daily[17] |
Side effects
Exceeding 2.8g daily can result in minor gastrointestinal discomfort (similar to fish oil consumption), though that subsides with consistent consumption.[17]
Black currant oil
Black currant oil is a popular, inexpensive supplement that contains GLA. The downside is that the concentration of GLA is small.
- We like NOW Black Currant Oil or Health From The Sun Black Currant Oil .
Borage oil
Borage oil containsone of the highest concentrations of GLA compared to other sources.
- NOW Borage Oil and Nature's Way EFA Gold Borage Oil are good sources of GLA.
Primrose oil
Primrose oil is a good source of GLA and is very popular for treating menstrual cramps.
- NOW Super Primrose or Jarrow Formulas Evening Primrose 1300 are good options.
