MRC's Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) supplement contains Omega-3 fish oils and Omega-6 fatty acids. These healthy fats are an essential part of a well-balanced diet to support a healthier life and better well-being.
Omega-3 fatty acids are also known as DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). These fats are available primarily from deep-sea fish sources (cod, halibut, mackerel, etc.) and a few less-common plant sources (flax, borage). Many individuals do not consume these foods on a daily basis, making supplementation an easy option for keeping the body's levels optimal.
Omega-6 fatty acids are in the gamma-linolenic acid form known as GLA which is from borage oil. These fats are not natuarlly produced by the body, making dietary supplementation essential. Similar to Omega-3s, we do not always consume the foods that contain these essential fats in adequate amounts - making an easy-to-take supplement such as MRC's EFA a good option.
Vitamin E is added to each capsule to help quench free radical formation - an unintended side effect of polyunsaturated fats such as Omega-3 and Omega-6.
Enteric Coating allows the capsules to travel further down the digestive tract before being released into the body. Fish oils that leave a fishy aftertaste (or "fish burp") are the result of the oils being released sooner. By coating each capsule with an enteric coating, the fatty acids are not released as soon into the body. Same great health benefits without the dreadful aftertaste.
