The benefits of the fatty acids found in omega 3-6-9 are now well understood. While our body has the ability to produce omega 9, critical for heart health, omega-3 and omega-6 are two types of fats considered "essential" as they cannot be manufactured by the body; therefore they have to be provided by a good diet or supplementation. However, it can often prove difficult to achieve through our diet, adequate levels and forms of each kind of fatty acid. Omega-6 fatty acids tend to be over-supplied while omega-3 fatty acids are under supplied in modern Western Diet, especially in vegetarian diets.
One of the biggest challenges for our diet, especially for the vegan and vegetarian diet, is getting a proper balance of healthy fats.
