Description

Essential fatty acids, (EFAs) are fatty acids that humans and other animals must ingest because the body requires them for good health but cannot synthesize them.The term "essential fatty acid" refers to fatty acids required for biological processes but does not include the fats that only act as fuel. Essential fatty acids should not be confused with essential oils, which are "essential" in the sense of being a concentrated essence. Only two fatty acids are known to be essential for humans: alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) and linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid). Some other fatty acids are sometimes classified as "conditionally essential," meaning that they can become essential under some developmental or disease conditions; examples include docosahexaenoic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) and gamma-linolenic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid).[Wikipedia: Essential fatty acid] Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
