Essential Fatty Acids

image of foods with fatty acids.

One component of nutrition that deserves significant attention is essential fatty acids (EFAs). EFAs cannot be produced by the body and therefore must come from the food we eat. They are the main structural components of our cell membranes, and keep our cell walls healthy by allowing nutrients to flow in and toxins to flow out. The three main essential fatty acids are Omega 3, Omega 6 and Omega 9. Most people consume enough Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids in the form of vegetable oils. However, we are often deficit in Omega fatty acids that come from foods such as flax seed, fish and borage oil. Omega 3 fatty acids are known to help with cardiovascular, joint and skin health, and to improve mood. Supplementing daily with an EFA capsule or liquid oil is essential to properly nourish your body.

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I had been experiencing severe radiating pain to my right hip and down my leg. I could hardly walk or ride in a car and this was going on three years. Medical Doctors couldn’t tell me what was wrong. Dr.Carmon explained to me what was wrong and after four treatments my hip pain was gone. Now I can run and ride in a car without pain. Thank you Dr. Carmon."
    -Amanda Howe
  • "When I first came to Dr. Carmon I had been suffering with neck pain and chronic headaches several times a week for a couple of years. The problem stemmed from a car accident I had been in one year earlier. I was on several medications that just made me feel sleepy and tired. After talking to Dr. Carmon about my condition he then performed some exams and explained to me that this condition was coming from my neck. I no longer have headaches and can work without fear of getting neck pain. I would recommend anyone with neck pain or headaches to see Dr. Carmon."
