A Quick Introduction

Not many people know exactly what an Essential Fatty Acid is, and I'm sure even more people would associate fatty acids with being a bad thing because they have the word "fat" associated with them. The reason I chose to do a blog about them was to show that this negative connatation is not true, and in fact is the exact opposite of what fatty acids do! I want people to see that these EFA's are completely essential like there name implies, and hope to show them how much they should be getting on a regular basis, as well as, show them what types of food or supplements they can find these fatty acids in. I hope you enjoy reading this blog and find it helpful in learning about Essential Fatty Acids!

More info on What Essential Fatty Acids Are

Here is a link to wikipedia that describes more thoroughly what exactly an essential fatty acid is, and what some of the functions are.  It also gives some resources as to which foods contain these acids and how they relate to health.  I know the jury is still out on whether wikipedia is a good source for info, but a lot of this page has been cited to other more reliable sources, so I think this link should actually be quite helpful.


Here's the link to the page.
