Health From The Sun The Total EFA - 8 oz.
Health From The Sun The Total EFA helps to promote healthy skin, healthy joints, and healthy memory function. EFA's have been shown to have positive effects on insulin sensitivity, thermogenesis and anabolism.It plays a vital role in hormone synthesis. Many individuals believe that in order to lose weight, one must eliminate fat from the diet. Unfortunately, this can be very harmful to the body as certain types of fats are critical to proper function of the body. These beneficial fats are EFAs. These are essential because your body cannot produce them on its own so they must come from your diet.
These EFAs are necessary for the following processes:
- Formation of healthy cell membranes.
- Proper development and functioning of the brain and nervous system.
- Proper thyroid and adrenal activity.
- Hormone production.
- Regulation of blood pressure, liver function, immune and inflammatory responses.
- Regulation of blood clotting: Omega-6 FAs encourage blood clot formation, whereas Omega-3 oil reduces clotting. The ideal is to achieve a balance between omega-6 and omega-3 FAs.
- Crucial for the transport and breakdown of cholesterol.
- Support healthy skin and hair.
FAQ
What is EFA?
Essential Fatty Acids are oils, omega-3 and omega-6, that you can find, in certain amounts, in all oils that you can purchase in most the health food and regular grocery stores. These fatty acids are called essential because you cannot create them in your body and your cells use them every day.
What happens when we don't get enough good fats?
The short answer is: Every part of the body gradually deteriorates and falls apart. No cell, tissue, gland, or organ can function normally without them. Here is a longer list:
- Dry skin
- Constipation
- Low energy levels
- Brittle hair and hair loss
- Poor nail growth
- Deterioration of liver and kidneys
- Behavioral changes due to brain deterioration
- Glands dry up
- Immune system deteriorates, resulting in more infections, poorer wound healing, and increased cancer
- Digestion problems, inflammation, bloating, allergies, autoimmune conditions
- Bone mineral loss
- Reproductive failure: sterility in males and miscarriage in females
- Retarded growth of children
- Tingling in arms and legs due to nerve deterioration
- Vision and learning problems
- Insulin resistance
- Increased risk of overweight
- Increased cancer risk
- Increased cardiovascular risk
- Decreased ability to cope with stress
- In mental illness, increased symptoms
- Decreased lung function
- Decreased tissue oxidation

What are the fatty acids?
|
|
|
Chemically, a fatty acid is an organic compound with an acid group at one end of its molecule and a methyl group at the other end. Fatty acids are typically categorized in the omega groups 3, 6 and 9 according to the location of their first double bond. There’s also an omega-7 group, but these are compartively less important to human health.
|
|
|
|
|
What are the essential fatty acids (EFA)?
|
|
|
The term essential fatty acid (EFA) refers to a fatty acid that the body cannot manufacture and must, therefore, obtain from dietary sources. These EFAs were originally designated as Vitamin F, until it was realized they should be classified with the fats.
There are two fatty acids designated as EFAs: Linoleic acid (LA) (omega-6) and Alpha linolenic acid (ALA) (omega-3). This does not mean the other 15 or so fatty acids found in the omega 3, 6 and 9 groups aren’t important, just that a healthy body can manufacture them as long as it gets enough LA and ALA. Nevertheless, research demonstrates there are health benefits to be had by obtaining some of the other nonessential fatty acids directly.
|
|
|
|
|
What roles do Essential fatty acids (EFAs) play in our body?
|
|
|
EFAs Plays an important role in our body. The body uses EFAs for the formation of healthy cell membranes, the proper development and functioning of the brain and nervous system, and for the production of hormone-like substances called eicosanoids (i.e., thromboxanes, leukotrienes, prostaglandins). These chemicals regulate numerous body functions including blood pressure, blood viscosity, vasoconstriction, immune and inflammatory responses. Here are some main functions of EFAs:
- Energy Production
- Diffusion of oxygen into the bloodstream
- Brain and nerve tissue development
- Control cell membrane fluids
- Strengthen immune system
- Reduce water retention, by assisting in sodium and water removal
- Calming effect and regulates mood
No doubt, essential fatty acids are of extreme importance. There is more to them though.
