摘要
One of the most crucial elements of cells that affect many organisms' typical growth and function is Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs). In nutrition and well-being, omega-3 fatty acids, a crucial subtype of Polyunsaturated Fats (PUFAs), are sometimes referred to as "good fats." Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA), Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) are the three main forms of Omega-3 fatty acids that are frequently present in meals and supplements. Omega-3 fatty acids may be found in both plants and animals. It has historically been utilised for topical fibrous dressings, dermatological applications, cutaneous wound healing, and infant health and development. Omega-3 fatty acids have a wide range of uses in terms of health advantages, including those for the heart, blood vessels, brain, eyes, inflammatory conditions, mental health, pregnancy and infant development, reduced inflammation, skin, cancer prevention, and weight management, among other things. Several enzymatic mechanisms are involved in the metabolism and conversion of omega-3 fatty acids in the human body, and these processes are crucial for preserving general health. There are fewer adverse effects than the number of uses, yet they are nevertheless noted since it might lead to allergy problems, excessive bleeding, and asthma. Another significant possible downside is that it may interact with the anticoagulant and statin medication classes. Therefore, utilise omega-3 fatty acids in conjunction with these two categories of medications with extreme caution. Scientists contend that, in contrast to other nutrients, omega-3s had a spike of scholarly and commercial activity ten years ago before waning. Every year, the industry is boosted by fresh research discoveries that either confirm prior findings or offer up new avenues for investigation. People will wish to profit from these advantages as global discretionary income grows, especially in Asia, thus the market will continue to expand as a result.
