Complete Essential Fatty Acids, 120 Softgels, From Source Natural

Source Naturals Complete Essential Fatty Acids is an excellent blend of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid which plays a significant role in cerebral development throughout the life cycle, especially during the crucial period of fetal development and infancy. Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) is an omega-6 fatty acid used by most cells in the body to produce soothing PGE1 prostaglandins.

Essential Fatty Acids, or EFA's, act as precursors to molecules such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes which help regulate cellular function. EFA's have been shown to play a role in blood pressure maintenance, immune system balance, sustaining healthy skin, and providing nutritional support during women's cycles.

Essential fatty acids have been shown to have positive effects on insulin sensitivity, thermogenesis, a.ism, and much more. These processes entail the use of many complex mechanisms, however. Of prime importance is their function in hormone synthesis. By passing through the cyclooxygenase, or lipoxygenase enzymatic pathways, fats are able to form several hormones known as eicosanoids. These hormones elicit many Testosterone attributes. Highlighted features in this study include: how to maximize hormones, mechanisms of fatty acids functions, and optimal EFA ratios for the athlete.
