Omega 6 (Lipids)
Omega-6 is a type of unsaturated fatty acid, and is considered essential for the human body. It is usually found in vegetable oils, such as corn oil and sunflower oil, as well as in nuts and seeds.
Benefits of Omega-6:
Heart health: It helps reduce levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase good cholesterol (HDL).
Skin health: It helps maintain skin hydration and reduce inflammation.
Immune support: It plays a role in enhancing the body's immune response.
Sources of Omega-6:
Vegetable oils (such as corn oil and soybean oil)
Nuts (such as walnuts and almonds)
Seeds (such as chia seeds and sunflower seeds)
It is important to maintain a balance between Omega-6 and Omega-3, as an excess of Omega-6 can lead to inflammation and health problems if it is not balanced with Omega-3.
