Omega 3-6-9 is the perfect product for those wanting to add essential oils to their diet.</p>
<p>Consuming adequate amounts of healthy kinds of fat &#8211; &#8220;essential fatty acids,&#8221; like those found in Omega 3-6-9 formula, is vital for your overall health.<span id="more-54"></span></p>
<p><strong>Omega-3 Fatty Acids Promote Heart Health</strong></p>
<p>Studies have shown diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids support heart health by promoting proper triglyceride and cholesterol levels.</p>
<p><strong>The Important Role Played by Omega-6 Fatty Acids</strong></p>
<p>The key type of omega-6 fatty acid is called GLA (gamma linolenic acid). GLA is a precursor to hormone-like prostaglandins (PGE-1). Prostaglandins and specifically PGE-1 are powerful health &#8220;gladiators&#8221; cascading through the body.</p>
<p>PGE-1 promotes healthy blood flow to and from the heart by supporting blood vessels.</p>
<p>Immune function is also under the powerful influence of PGE-1, which controls the release of lymphokines known to activate immune system cells.</p>
<p>Production and secretion of vital hormones in the pituitary, thyroid and adrenal glands, as well as immune boosting and lean tissue building growth hormone, are all stimulated by &#8220;multi-talented&#8221; PGE-1. PGE-1 also promotes the release and uptake of neurotransmitters, the chemical messengers of the nervous system, which support healthy sleep patterns and mood.</p>
<p>Healthy levels of fatty acids which lead to adequate PGE-1 are important for those wishing to maintain energy levels.</p>
<p><strong>Omega 9 Fatty Acid</strong><br />
Common to olive oil, peanuts and avocado, Omega 9 fatty acid is also known as oleic acid. While not an essential fatty acid (the body can manufacture omega 9), supplementing with Omega 9 provides a good source of monounsaturated fat that promotes a healthy inflammation response.</p>
