Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are fatty acids that cannot be constructed within an organism from other components by any known chemical pathways, and therefore must be obtained from the diet.
Therapeutic value
Edit
- With magnesium, calcium, multivitamins and mixed fatty acid esters, EFAs might help reduce inflammation.[1]
- In combination with Vitamin B, EFA's help maintain a healthy heart.[1]
