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.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "Used to suffer from lower back pain with my share of back spasms & slipped discs. Dr. Ray Clites fixed that right up! Highly recommend booking a massage before your appointment as well - the masseuse is nothing short of incredible and can offer deep-tissue massage as well. Linda at the front desk is extremely friendly & personable and just an overall great staff! Start living life pain free!"

  • "Adrianna is fantastic. She has been working with me to unlock my back, and sends me home with homework to work on each week. Between her and the Dr, my back will soon finally be behaving!"

  • "Dr. Ray is a great guy. He is laid back and his office staff is always nice. As another chiropractor myself, (yes I too need adjustments) he has helped me heal from more than one self inflicted injury. I couldn't even move and in a few short weeks I was moving and shaking again!"
    Dr. Kevan Kruse, D.C.
