How Essential Fatty Acids Improve Your Brain Power and Mental Health
What is your brain made of Over 50% of your brain is made of good fat. Twenty percent of this good fat comes from EPA and DHA. Remember EPA and DHA comes from, * omega-3 fatty acids * eating fish * borage oil * primrose oil * parilla oil * NOK oil I have covered all these oils in other articles except NKO Krill Oil. This oil is the new kid on the block. It comes from Antarctic krill, a crustacean found in the Antarctic waters. It provides EPA and DHA like borage oil does, but its chemical structure is phospholipids. Phospholipids are easier for your cells to absorb than borage oil's EPA and DHA, which is in the form of tryglycerides. The essential fatty acids provide the chemical molecules to make Phospholipids. These phospholipids gather together to form a protective barrier around each cell in your body. If the fatty acids are in phospholipids form, your body is able to use them quicker and more efficiently. This is what makes NOK oil a more bio-available advanced oil than borage or primrose oil. If you are deficient in the essential fatty acids, you will be more susceptible to these conditions: * Alzheimer's disease * Anxiety and body stress * Heart disease * Attention deficit disorder * Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder * Bipolar disorder * Chronic fatigue syndrome * Depression * Learning disorders * Memory impairment * Parkinson's disease * Schizophrenia Making Your Brain Work Like It Should Your brain needs a good daily supply of the essential fatty acid omega-3. It also uses omega-6 and AA (Arachidonic acid). So this means taking a good dose of NKO oil is a necessary daily routine for keeping your brain from shrinking. Alzheimer's disease Doctors believe that if every one lived to be over 120 years, they would come down with Alzheimer's disease. It is a disease that once your have it, all you can do, at this time, is to slow its progression using certain drugs and nutrients. Before your brain starts to deteriorated to where it contains nodules of toxins, excess oxidation due to free radicals, and weaken and narrowing blood vessels, it might be a good idea to start feeding it the food it needs. DHA is in order for Alzheimer's disease. When DHA is deficient in your diet, you can expect to have memory loss and become depressed as you age. Lecithin is also in order since it helps to provide choline, a precursor to the memory neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It also provide the chemicals to produce RNA. Heart disease is closely related to Alzheimer's because the heart must be strong enough to pump plenty of blood into the brain and the arteries must open enough to circulate enough blood through the brain and throughout your body. Even if you don't come down with Alzheimer's or your family history doesn't support it, most of us are in line for dementia. Dementia is also attributed to deterioration of brain cells and support tissue. One of the causes of dementia is a diet that has been deficient in the essential fatty acids. Here are my recommendation for supplementing with the essential fatty acids: * Eat more good fish, at least once a week and occasionally twice a week * Eat less fat and particularly saturated fat. A good number for daily fat intake is 15-20% of your overall calories. * Take daily, flax seed oil and olive oil for the omega-3 and omega-6 oils * Take a daily supplement of NKO or Borage oil which supplies EPA and DHA Rudy Silva has a degree in Physics and is a Natural Nutritionist.
