Omega 3-6-9 Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9 are the fatty acids every person needs and are essential for good health. Omega fatty acids help contribute to better skin and hair, circulatory, reproductive and respiratory systems, and the brain. Omega-3 and Omega-6 cannot be produced by the body and therefore must be obtained through food and supplements. But as for Omega-9, it can be produced by the body from Omega-3 and Omega-6.

Benefits of Omega-3 Omega-3 contains the polyunsaturated fatty acids DHA and EPA that is found in types of fatty fish like salmon and mackerel. These fatty acids in Omega-3 can lower triglyceride levels in the blood and help prevent the build up of plaque in the arteries.
Benefits fo Omega-6 Omega-6 is another fatty acid that is essential for the human body. This Omega contains linoleic acid and is found in vegetable oils, nuts and seeds. Omega-6 contributes to good reproductive health and development of the brain.
Benefits of Omega-9 Omega-9 fatty acid comes from olive oil and other vegetable oils, avocados and nuts. It is different from the Omega-3 and Omega-6 because the body can produce Omega-9 naturally from Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids. Omega-9 contributes to lowering cholesterol levels and strengthens the immune system
