Omega Omega- -3 And Omega 3 And Omega- -6 Fatty Acids Acids. 6 Fatty Dr. Rakesh Pandey Assistant Professor Department of Botany DDU Gorakhpur University Gorakhpur
Introduction Introduction There are two types of omega fatty acids as :- 1. Omega-3 Fatty Acids 2. Omega-6 Fatty Acids They are also called as essential fatty acids as humans like all mammals cannot make/synthesis them and most obtain them in their diet. The location of the first double bond in unsaturatef fatty acids affect the naming and characteristics of the unsaturated fatty acids.
Omega Omega- -3 Fatty Acids 3 Fatty Acids First double bond is between the third and fourth carbon from the omega end. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids, a class of nutrients needed for our body to function normally. These are the fats of life which helo our cells to function properly. Omega-3 cannot be produced in our body and should be supplied through the diet.
Types Of Omega Types Of Omega- -3 Acids 3 Acids There are 3 very important types of omega-3 acids :- 1. Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) 2. Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) 3. Docosahexaenoic Acid(DHA)
Alpha Alpha- - Linolenic Acid Linolenic Acid Alpha-Linolenic Acid is an n- 3 fatty acid. It is one of two essential fatty acids, so called because they are necessary for health and cannot be produced within the human body.
Eicosapentaenoic Acid Eicosapentaenoic Acid Eicosapentaenoic Acid is an omega-3 fatty acid. In physiological literature , it is given the name 20:5. It also has the trivial name Timnodonic Acid.
Docosahexaenoic Acid Docosahexaenoic Acid Docosahexaenoic Acid is an omega-3 fatty acid that is a primary structural component of the human brain, cerebral cortex, skin, sperm, testicles and retina.
Functions Of Omega Functions Of Omega- -3 Fatty Acids 3 Fatty Acids Omega-3 plays a major role in a number of functions in our body. Here are they:- Relaxation and contraction of muscles Blood clotting Digestion Fertility Cell division Growth Movement of calcium and other substances in and out of cells.
Sources Of Omega Sources Of Omega- -3 Fatty Acids 3 Fatty Acids The following are same of the sources of omega-3 fatty acids:- Fish And Fish Oil :- Sardines, Salmon, Tuna, Trout, Cod Nuts And Seeds:- Walnuts, Flax Seed. Veggies:- Spinach, Cauliflower, Brussels,Sprouts etc. Oil:- Flax Seed oil, Soybean oil etc. Beans:- Kidney beans, Pinto and Mungo beans. Eggs
Health Benefits Of Omega Health Benefits Of Omega- -3 Fatty Acids 3 Fatty Acids Reduces cardiovascular risk factors. Reduces morning stiffness, swollen joints abd rheumatoid arthritis. Lowers the risk of cancer. Reduces inflammation throughout the body. Reduces the risk of obesity. Maintains fluidity of cell membranes.
Omega Omega- -6 Fatty Acids 6 Fatty Acids First double bond is between the sixth and seventh carbon from the omega end. A class of essential fatty acids found in fish oils, especially from salmon and other cold- water fish, that acts to lower the levels of cholesterol and LDL( Low Density Lipoproteins) in the blood (LDL cholesterol is the bad cholesterol).
Functions Of Omega Functions Of Omega- -6 Fatty Acids Omega-6 is essential to the body and the main omega-6 acid required by the body is Linolenic Acid. Along with omega-3, omega-6 acids also play a crucial role in brain function, normal growth and development. It also helps to stimulate skin, enhance hair growth, maintain bone health, regulate metabloism and maintain healthy reproductive system. 6 Fatty Acids
Sources Of Omega Sources Of Omega- -6 Fatty Acids 6 Fatty Acids Omega-6 fattu acids are abundantly found in many commonly eaten foods. It is primarily found in vegetable oils, which are very much abundant in all processesd foods such as oilve oil, sesame oil, hempseed oil, chia seed oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, cotton seed oil. Meat and Diary Grains and Cereals.
Health Benefits Of Omega Health Benefits Of Omega- -6 Fatty Acids 6 Fatty Acids A western diet is usually rich in Omega-6. Omega-6 supresses the immune system leaving the body more susceptible to disease. Decrease formation of blood clots. Promotes increase in cellular growth, reduce to cancer. It also decrease to arthritis, mood disorders, osteoporisis and obesity.

Deficiencies Caused By Omega Deficiencies Caused By Omega- -3 And Omega Fatty Acids Fatty Acids 3 And Omega- -6 6 Eczema or dry irritated skin. Water loss Hair loss Drying eyes Arthritis High cholesterol Kidney damage
