The brain is one of the organs with high levels of lipids (fats), brain fats, fatty acids formed by, participating in the structure of cell membranes. 50% of the fatty acids are a polyunsaturated gray matter, one third is from the family of omega-3 and its origin lies in our daily diet. Omega 3 and Omega 6 acids in our diet are stored in the cell membranes. It should be noted that on the cardiovascular level, the actions of Omega 3 are benign but not the excess of Omega 6.

The Omega 3 is the precursor for the development of DHA that it needs to generate fetuses for brain development, as well as during the first years of childhood. Omega 3 fatty acids include “alphalinolenic” and its derivatives the “Eicosapentanoic” (EPA) and “Docosahexaenoic” (DHA) fatty acids. The most important Omega-6 fatty acid is ARA, arachidonic acid (ARA). DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is the predominant fatty acid in the structure of the brain and retina, it represents approximately 40% of polyunsaturated fatty acids of the brain and 60% of our eyes, it is made from DHA Phospholipids cell membranes, which is their final location, where they have the most metabolic functions.

Cells that are being developed as is in the case of the fetus and growing children have a high requirement for DHA. Phospholipid concentrations in the presence of DHA in the retina decrease with age as well as various other sensory functions.

Fatty plasma acid composition has been associated with depression in the elderly, and in schizophrenia it was said to have reduced the turnover of phospholipids. In various types of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease, Levels of low plasma membrane omega-3 constitute risk factors for these diseases, so that older people consuming Omega 3 are positively associated with the cognitive level.

Cholesterol and triglycerides (which are a type of fat consumed in food or are produced by the liver) and are important for our body to kept in good shape, but when the both levels are high, it can put people at risk of developing heart disease or strokes because of the blood increases its viscosity and becomes thicker, creating problems in the circulation.

The lack of omega creates a vulnerability, which could cause the heart muscles to arrhythmias, which is a common cause of death, after heart attack.
