Omega-3

The Vital Role of Omega-3 Fatty Acids – Why It’s Important, Who It’s Recommended For, and What Makes Zinzino Balance Oil Special?

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients crucial for numerous physiological processes in the body. From supporting brain function to protecting the cardiovascular system, reducing inflammation, and aiding children’s development, they offer a wide range of benefits. Since our bodies cannot produce these essential fatty acids and modern dietary habits often lead to insufficient intake, the use of supplements is becoming increasingly important.

Did You Know?

Modern research shows that the average Western diet provides only 50-100 mg of omega-3 per day, while optimal health benefits require a daily intake of 250-2000 mg of EPA/DHA.

What Is Omega-3 and What Does It Do in Our Body?

Omega-3s are essential fatty acids, meaning our bodies can’t produce them — we must obtain them through food or supplements.

The three most important types are:

EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid): Anti-inflammatory properties, protects the cardiovascular system, reduces mood swings.

DHA (docosahexaenoic acid): Essential for brain, vision, and nervous system development; improves memory and aids concentration.

ALA (alpha-linolenic acid): Supports flexible blood vessels, lowers cholesterol levels, and supports metabolic processes.

EPA and DHA are primarily found in algae and marine fish (e.g., salmon, sardines, mackerel). These two forms work synergistically, so it’s beneficial to consume both to fully support health.

ALA is mainly found in plant-based sources (e.g., flaxseed, walnuts, chia seeds, canola oil), but consuming these isn’t enough because ALA is converted into the more active EPA and DHA forms at a very low rate (1-10%).

Who Should Pay Extra Attention to Omega-3 Intake?

Children, pregnant, and breastfeeding women: For brain and nervous system development.

Athletes: To reduce inflammation and enhance recovery.

Elderly: To preserve cognitive abilities and protect heart health.

Chronic inflammatory conditions: Such as autoimmune diseases, joint issues.

Vegans and vegetarians: Who don’t consume certain food groups like fish.

Everyone: For brain function, cardiovascular protection, nerve and immune system support, etc.

Did You Know?

Studies show that omega-3 consumption during pregnancy can reduce the risk of postpartum depression. Omega-3, particularly DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), play an important role in brain and nervous system function for both mother and baby.

How Much Omega-3 Do We Need?

Recommended daily intake:

Adults: 250–2000 mg EPA+DHA (depending on health status).

Children: 100–250 mg DHA (based on age and weight).

Pregnant and breastfeeding people: Minimum 300 mg DHA per day.

It’s important that omega-3 comes from a quality source, as cheaper products may oxidize (go rancid) or contain less bioavailable forms of the active ingredients.

Why Is the Omega-6 to Omega-3 Balance Important?

In the modern diet, excessive consumption of omega-6 fatty acids (from sunflower oil, processed foods) and insufficient omega-3 intake (fewer fish, seeds) disrupts the balance between these two nutrients. Ideally, the omega-6:omega-3 ratio should be below 3:1, but the current average is 15:1–25:1. This imbalance can lead to chronic inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, and immune system disorders.

The Zinzino Balance Solution

Personalized based on testing: A dried blood spot test measures the current omega-6:3 ratio and cellular inflammation levels in the body.
