Choosing The Right EFAs For You

A few weeks ago I said I would be writing a blog post on how to select the correct Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) for you.  I had been delaying writing this article because I knew the long hours of research it would entail in order for it to be informative, thorough, and complete.

Well, Youngevity has made this blog post very easy. The latest post on the company’s blog is…you guessed it, Choosing The Right Fish Oil Supplement (EFAs):

Does choosing the right fish oil supplement have your head swimming with terms like omega-3s, essential fatty acids, EPA, DHA, and ALA? How do you know which one is right for you?

If you’re confused about fish oil, you’re not alone. Although it’s one of the top five supplements that people say they take on a regular basis, most aren’t really sure of what it is and why they need it. In fact, a large survey conducted in Belgium found that only a third of respondents were aware that fish contains omega-3 fatty acids and that fish oil has a positive impact on health. Nearly half of respondents thought that fish contains dietary fiber (it does not). Read on…

Personally, I started with Omega-3s only.  Then after attending a great health seminar given by Dr. Peter Glidden, I switched to Omega-3-6-9…and the results were like night and day, literally.  It was as though someone turned the light on inside my brain. The mental fogginess I had been experiencing was gone, and my skin tone even started to improve.

After two months of taking Omega-3-6-9, I switched to Omega-3-6. It is a product we carry that is specially formulated for women (it also contains evening primrose oil).  I used it for 30 days, and overall I liked the results.  But then on Tuesday, July 5th, I received my autoship order containing Omega-3-6-9, and again I could tell a difference in just 24 hours. I looked more rested around my eyes and my memory was sharp, sharp, sharp! (By the way, I always experience really fast results).

The Omega-3-6-9 comes standard in our Healthy Start Pak (Item# 10245).  My recommendation is that you take the full 90 Essential Nutrients, rather than just 3 of them.

You’ll thank me later.
