Why You Need Omega-3’s

Omega-3 fatty acids are considered an essential fatty acid to human health. They cannot be manufactured by your body and must be obtained from oily fish and omega-3-enriched foods.

Omega-3’s are vital for the development of a baby’s brain, making it an important nutrient for pregnant women. Omega-3 fats also keep your heart healthy and reduce the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

Where you get them: Make sure you eat oily fish such as salmon, tuna and sardines at least once a week.
