Why do we need Omega-3?
Omega-3 essential fatty acids (EPA & DHA) are just this - essential to our health. Unfortunately our bodies don’t synthesise these, therefore the only way to obtain them is through our diet and supplementation. They are vital to the suppleness and health of all cells in the body, and they provide many positive benefits for brain function, cardiovascular and nervous systems, joint health and mobility.
Flaxseed provides the body with omega-3 in the far less effective form of alpha-linoleic acid (ALA). ALA is not equivalent to DHA or EPA in its biological effects, and needs to be converted to EPA in order to be effective.
What is the importance of Vitamin D?
Our bodies main source of vitamin D is via exposure to sunlight. So if people spend more time indoors, risks of deficiencies increase. This makes supplemental Vitamin D even more important.
Certain groups are more at risk of deficiencies including: older people in residential care or admitted to hospital, people with hip fractures, people with very dark skin, people with skin cancers or skin-related conditions, where avoidance of sunlight is required, people who completely avoid the sun, people with malabsorption syndromes.
Bone health is a key reason we need optimal Vitamin D. Vitamin D is ideal for anyone who does not get enough natural sunlight. It works with calcium to support its absorption into the bone, thus in turn it helps to build and maintain strong healthy bones. Among its other roles, Vitamin D helps with healthy moods, and immunity.
