Recent investigations have found that a daily intake of oils called Essential Fatty Acids, from which comes the Omega oils (Omega-3 and Omega-6), are very important for good health. These Omega oils should be taken daily in the foods which contain them or apart in dietary supplements because the body does not produce them, as is the case with the majority of other body fats. This is why they are called Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs).
