Our eating habits have changed since the arrival of processed food and today, many people are now realising that there is a necessity to consume the good fats and reduce the harmful fats. The good fats are the two essential fats: Omega- 3 Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA) also called super polyunsaturated and Omega-6 Linoleic Acid (LA), more commonly known as polyunsaturated fat. These fats are essential because our bodies cannot exist without them and most importantly of all they must come from food. A serious deficiency of either results in progressively poorer health. For these reasons, healthy fat is every bit as important as protein, minerals and vitamins. The essential fats act as lubricants, cushions and insulators, guarding against the stresses that we encounter. They provide structural rigidity to cell membranes, and specifically in the case of the Omega-3 Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA), it is known to be beneficial for heart health and its anti inflammatory effect. If you don't like eating flaxseed oil, Melrose flaxseed capsules are a convenient way to get all the health benefits associated with flaxseed oil. As Flaxseed Oil is intended to be taken regularly, breakfast is the ideal time.
