What are Essential Fatty Acids?
Essential Fatty Acids are considered “essential” because
these fats are needed by the body for good health, yet they
cannot be manufactured within the human body and must be
aquired through the diet.
EFAs help the body every day to:
- Nourish active tissues, such as the brain, heart, eyes
and kidneys
- Support healthy immune function and nervous system
function
- Maintain circulatory health and healthy metabolism
- Support brain health and development
- Promote a positive mood
Most people do not consume adequate amounts of
essential fatty acids.
What is different about OilSMART?
The EFAs in OilSMART come from flax, borage and
fish oil. OilSMART also contains the fat-digesting
enzyme lipase. Many people are hesitant to take fish oil
because of the fishy taste and “repeat” that occurs with
many supplements. Lipase is an enzyme that breaks
down the fats in OilSMART and helps to prevent
the fishy aftertaste. Lipase also makes the EFAs in
OilSMART easier for the body to absorb. Each
capsule is colored with carob to protect the oils from
the damaging effects of light.
