The importance of Omega 3 and Omega 6

Why is Omega 3 important?

Omega 3 acts as an anti inflammatory agent, and also helps the mobility of all the cells in the body by acting as a lubricant.

Omega 3 is one of the polyunsaturated fats that are essential to our health. Other polyunsaturated fats are omega 6, omega 9 and more.

Omega 3 has two main components; the EPA and the DHA.

Researchers agree that it is most beneficial to introduce to our diet the omega 3 with both the EPA and the DHA components together and not separately.

How is the EPA and the DHA in Omega 3 made?

Our diet needs to include some omega 6. Omega 6 will be essential for the production of omega 3.

The omega 6 fatty acid, when in the liver, will get elongated with more carbon molecules. This new molecule will be elongated again, in he liver, to become EPA.

The liver will metabolize the EPA and then DHA will be created.

Studies found that DHA does not convert to EPA.

Where in the body we can find EPA and DHA?

The brain and the retina are rich in DHA, but these organs do not contain EPA.

Anywhere in the body we can find the EPA that will help us with many bodily functions.

Where can we get healthy sources of Omega 6?

We can find omega 6 in various whole foods and oils, i.e., Sunflower, safflower, soybean, corn, and more.

In order to reduce the oils costs, these oils became less pure comparing to their quality of many years ago, and as such be used by the food industry in all the aspects of producing packaged foods and cooking in restaurants.

I use whole foods containing omega 6, for instance sunflower seeds, avocado, walnuts and such, peanut butter, eggs and many more. I do not recommend using the oils mentioned above.

Where can we get healthy sources of Omega 3?

There is plenty of omega 3 in wild caught fish like sardines, salmon, cod liver, herring and other fatty fish.

Other good sources are cashews, almonds, walnut, chia, flaxseeds and many more.

Examples of diseases that Omega 3 can prevent or assist in curing.

Triglycerides – May lower the level with increasing EPA.

EPA reduces inflammation by creating a molecule by the name resolvents. In one example, EPA can help with arthritis disease by reducing the inflammation and therefore reducing the pain.

When EPA goes into the membranes, it improves the fluidity and therefore the metabolism will run smoothly.

Our neurons must be lubricated at all times. This is the basic consideration to prevent Alzheimer’s disease.

EPA can control the heart rate.

Bleeding – EPA makes the platelets not to be too sticky and therefore clogs might be prevented. This will result in prevention of heart attacks.

Pulmonary diseases, overall improve the immune system and more.

Uric Acid and Salt

Is the consumption of salt a contributor to high level of uric acid?

Yes, salt 🧂 can be the cause for high levels of uric acid.
We know that salt might be the cause for high blood pressure. What we also need to know is that salt 🧂 can be the cause for high levels of uric acid.

what is the mechanism for which salt becomes uric acid?

When we consume salt 🧂 and don’t drink enough water, 💦 the metabolism of salt will be transformed to fructose.
This fructose will degrade the ATP generation that will cause an increase of the ADP and AMP molecules.
Ultimately the AMP will metabolize into uric acid.

How is high uric acid affect our health?

The uric acid can be present inside the cell or outside it. When is inside the cell, it will create oxidation which is a destructive process to the creation of the ATP.
When the uric acid is outside the cell, it will be transformed into crystals that will cause gout.
So, if you want to know the source of the high blood pressure or the reasons for gout, check the level of the uric acid.
‼️Therefore, it is recommended not to consume too much salt or fructose (sweet fruits), and to drink plenty of water.
