• Increase energy, performance, and stamina. EFAs enhance thermogenesis, help build muscle, prevent muscle break down, and speed recovery from fatigue; • Strengthen the immune system. EFAs make hormone-like eicosanoids that regulate immune and inflammatory responses. Omega 3s have anti-inflammatory effects and can slow autoimmune damage; • Lower most risk factors for cardiovascular disease. EFAs (especially omega 3s) lower abnormally high levels of blood pressure, triglycerides, fibrinogen, tendency to clot formation, and inflammation; • Improve brain function: mood, intelligence, behavior, and vision. Our brain is over 60% fat. EFAs are important components of the entire nervous system. They are necessary to make the neurotransmitter serotonin. Depression and other brain diseases show decreased levels of omega 3; • Aid in weight reduction. EFAs help keep mood and energy up and suppress appetite, thereby aiding in weight loss.
