Omega fatty acids are foundational nutrients your body cannot make on its own. They support cell membranes, reduce inflammation, and play an outsized role in skin barrier function, cardiovascular health, and brain chemistry.
What they are
The most discussed omegas are EPA, DHA, and ALA. EPA and DHA (long-chain omega-3s) come from marine sources and are potent anti-inflammatory fats. ALA is plant-derived and converts inefficiently to EPA/DHA in humans.
Benefits
- Skin: Omega-3s strengthen the skin barrier, reduce redness, and improve hydration.
- Heart: They support healthy lipid profiles and circulation.
- Brain/Mood: DHA supports cognitive function; EPA can help mood balance.
