WELLNESS

Today’s poor quality diets and processed foods create deficiencies in two very important fats. Those fats are called DHA and EPA. Scientific research is showing that consuming sufficient quantities of DHA and EPA can help prevent certain diseases such as cancer, heart disease, depression and more.  These Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) cannot be manufactured in the body so we are required to get them through our diet.

EFA’s are essential for normal health and metabolism. EFA Icon is a powerful source of Omega 3’s. Most individual’s diets contain too much Omega 6 fats and not enough Omega 3 fats. Too much Omega 6 fats promotes the production of inflammation causing chemicals in the body. Omega 3’s, on the other hand, encourage the production of inflammation fighting chemicals.

Our current diets consist of a ratio of 20:1 Omega 6 to Omega 3 fats. Some scientists believe that this ratio is contributing to certain diseases such as heart disease, cancer and obesity. This is why it is believed that 90% of today’s population should be consuming high quality EFA Icon to help offset that ratio. This will not only decrease the risk for disease, but will also improve your overall quality of life.
