Omega 3 Fish Oil,DHA, EPA

Introduction

Fats are divided into 2 groups;
(1)Saturated fatty acids, which are contained in meat and eggs
(2)Unsaturated fatty acids, which are found abundantly in fish oil and vegetable oils
Unsaturated fatty acids are separated further into
Omega 3 which is mainly contained in fish, and
Omega 6 which is contained in vegetable oils and other various kinds of foods.
Since DHA/EPA is not produced much in our body, it is important to take them as food.
DHA/EPA is contained much in seafood, and Japanese used to take sufficient fish. However, nowadays people of today eat less fish, and the nutritious balance between Omega 3 and Omega 6 is not as good as before.
In our body, DHA is contained densely in the brain and retina. It is also important for baby growth (especially for brains).
