Maintain Your Brain Function With Docosahexaenoic Acid

Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is the primary structural component of brain tissue. There are three forms of Omega 3 fatty acids, these include: alpha linolenic acid (LNA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid. Essential fatty acids are separated into two large categories, the Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid are composed of several chains of metabolic events in the body that help prevent disease, transport and uptake of oxygen, maintain cardiovascular health, balance hormone levels, maintain brain and immune system function.

Our diet in the Western world contains too much Omega 6 fatty acid and not enough Omega 3 fatty acid. Great food sources for Omega 3 fatty acids include: flaxseed oil, canola oil, soybeans, walnuts, wheat germ, pumpkin seed, eggs and most importantly cold water fish. The retina of the eye is mostly composed of Docosahexaenoic acid. The more you supply your body with these nutritious fats the better the eye and other organs can function.

An infant's brain nearly triples in the first of year of their lives. Human breast milk is high in nutritious saturated fats and low in body building saturated fats, whereas cow's milk has more bodybuilding fat and less nutritious saturated fats such Docosahexaenoic acid because cows don't have to do a lot of thinking to survive. Human infants brains grow faster than the body.

Lipids and essential fatty acids are exceptionally important, serving essential, and indeed imperative roles throughout the body's biochemistry for our health and welfare. Lipids are the primary structural components of all cell walls and membranes of the body, composing some 50% of the dry weight of the brain, and 5-10% of all other cells. And, most cells continually degrade and replace these membrane lipids, so there is a continuous demand for them. Other Lipids and essential fatty acids allow brain and neural function, maintenance and growth, interference of which leads to major neurological disorders, enzyme deficiencies and skin disorders of all types. Most of all Lipids and Fatty Acids are necessary for Cardiovascular (eg. cardiolipin), Neurological and Dermatological Health (eg. linoleic and linolenic acids).
