Your body does not make Essential Fats. We get them from food and supplements. They are an excellent natural anti-inflammatory. Technically they're called Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Adequate intake of EFAs supports proper functioning of your natural inflammatory response. Can relieve unexplained aches and pains. Excess inflammation can be disguised as many things. EFAs may improve a poor complexion and red inflamed skin. Help stabilize your blood sugar, slowing the release of carbohydrates. Good for weight loss. May reduce cholesterol, blood pressure and glucose. Helps lower risk of blood clots. May slow the growth rate of some tumors. For children, insufficient intake of Essential Fats may impair brain development. Attention deficit and learning difficulties. Lack of concentration and hyperactivity. People suffer needlessly, when not getting enough Essential Fats. Premenstrual Syndrome and digestive troubles. High cholesterol, blood pressure and glucose. Obesity and eating disorders. Poor brain functioning and extreme sad moods. Chronic low energy and compromised immunity. Decreased libido or impotence. EFAs are not stored as fat. They’re burned for energy. Easily digested and not deposited into arteries as cholesterol. Please know that too much of any kind of fat is just that. Too much.
