The Relationship
Between Cardiovascular Health and Omega-3 Essential Fatty
Acids
Over 50 million Americans
have cardiovascular problems. Recent studies have cast doubt
over the effectiveness of essential fatty acids, prompting
further study and investigation...
Omega-3 fatty acids have been linked to a wide range of health
benefits, including good baby development during pregnancy,
joint health, behavior and mood, in addition to certain ulcers.
Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids classified
as essential because they cannot be synthesized in the body;
they must be obtained from food. Important omega-3 fatty acids
in human nutrition are: a-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic
acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
The following additions will supply your body with an abundant
supply of essential fatty acids:
Fish and shellfish
Flaxseed (linseed)
Soya oil
Canola oil
Hemp oil
Chia seeds
Pumpkin and sunflower seeds
Leafy vegetables and walnuts
Those who follow a Mediterranean-style
diet tend to have higher HDL ("good") cholesterol levels.
Similar to those who follow a Mediterranean diet, Inuit Eskimos,
who consume high amounts of omega-3 fatty acids from fatty
fish, also tend to have increased HDL cholesterol and decreased
triglycerides (fatty material that circulates in the blood).
In addition, fish oil supplements containing EPA and DHA have
been shown to reduce LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglycerides.
Finally, walnuts (rich in ALA) have been shown to lower total
cholesterol and triglycerides in people with high cholesterol.
