Omega 3 is made up of 3 different types of fatty acids: ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), EPA (eicosapentaenoic) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Together, these power houses are very important to your health. However, since the body can not create them on it’s own, it is important to make sure you are getting in enough through proper diet and nutrition. Some of the best sources of Omega 3 are:
Meat & Eggs
