Omega 3•6•9 at a Glance
Containing Flaxseed and Borage Seed Oils
Flaxseed is a rich source of minerals, omega 3 fatty acids, phytoestrogens and soluble and insoluble fiber; abundant evidence supports the value of flaxseed.*
Borage oil contains GLA or Gamma Linolenic Acid, which is an omega 6 fatty acid. GLA is an essential fatty acid that our body is not able to synthesize itself. GLA supplementation can support a healthy inflammation response to excercise.*
Omega 3, found primarily in fatty fish with high oil content, consists of both Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). Fish that are especially rich in the beneficial oils known as omega 3 fatty acids include mackerel, tuna, salmon, sturgeon, mullet, bluefish, anchovy, sardines, herring, trout, and menhaden. They provide about 1 gram of omega 3 fatty acids in approximately 3.5 ounces of fish9.*
Omega 6, also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), are considered essential for health similar to that of omega 3 fatty acids. Along with omega 3 fatty acids, omega 6 fatty acids play a crucial role in supporting brain health, as well as normal growth and development. They support skin and hair growth, maintain bone health, support metabolism and the reproductive system. For general health, there should be a balance between omega 6 and omega 3 fatty acids. The ratio should be in the range of 2:1 - 4:1, omega 6 to omega 3, and some health educators advocate even lower ratios. Based on these studies, in 2009 the American Heart Association recommended human diets to include high levels of n-6 PUFAs that comprise at least 5%–10% of the energy intake10. Consistent with the health claim, a 2003 meta-analysis supported the finding that substitution of saturated fatty acids with vegetable oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid, supported serum total and LDL cholesterol levels within a normal range11.*
