Omega-3: A Lifetime of Good Health

There is no doubt that the Omega-3 fatty acids are essential to health.

They are fundamental molecules in the structure and activity of the membranes of all cells throughout the body. They also have highly specialised functions in neurological tissues, especially the brain and retina. Because of their role in cell membranes, Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for the formation of new tissue and are therefore important for development and growth.

Known to be essential to brain and vision development during the last three months of pregnancy, the Omega-3 fatty acids continue to play a major health role at every stage of life through the prevention and management of certain diseases and chronic conditions.
