Essential Fatty Acids

image of foods with fatty acids.

One component of nutrition that deserves significant attention is essential fatty acids (EFAs). EFAs cannot be produced by the body and therefore must come from the food we eat. They are the main structural components of our cell membranes, and keep our cell walls healthy by allowing nutrients to flow in and toxins to flow out. The three main essential fatty acids are Omega 3, Omega 6 and Omega 9. Most people consume enough Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids in the form of vegetable oils. However, we are often deficit in Omega fatty acids that come from foods such as flax seed, fish and borage oil. Omega 3 fatty acids are known to help with cardiovascular, joint and skin health, and to improve mood. Supplementing daily with an EFA capsule or liquid oil is essential to properly nourish your body.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "Fedesna Chiropractic in Austin, TX is where I go for all my joint needs. Dr. Dave is super smart and very professional as he makes adjustments to my back, neck and hips. He takes the time to listen to my aches and pains and then goes to work. What I like about him, is that he gets it right the first time! And why not? He started learning the art of Chiropractic healing as a kid – he had 3 older brothers who are Doctors of Chiropractic who used to practice on him! When I leave Fedesna Chiropractic, I feel like a well-oiled machine - Love it!"
