The general consensus discovered in all my reading is that Omaga 3 fatty acids are a part of sustaining life. And have a key role in the prevention and management of chronic diseases. Omega 3 fatty acids are essential because they are the main structural components of the cellular membranes in the body. The body dos not produce them or synthesize them therefore must be obtained by diet.

There are two fatty acids in the Omega 3 family that seem to be extremely important. They are DHA and EPA. For the most part these particular fatty acids are in limited supply any real quantities are found in fish and shellfish. DHA is extremely important for pregnant mothers, and the development of brain and vision in young children. EPA on the other hand is considered most important to everyone, its value it essential to efficient brain and body function at a cellular level.

Omaga 3 and Omaga 6 fatty acids are critical on a cellular level to develop and maintain the structure of our cell membranes and nervous system. Our nervous system is actually the circuitry in our bodies that triggers things that need to be done, things as simple as when you burn your hand the nerves send a message to pull your hand away, to when you eat food, you need healthy nerves to trigger things like the secretion of digestive fluid, and move food through the digestive tract.

As far as I have found so far The Green Lipped Mussel from New Zealand has one of the greatest source of Omega 3 in the world. Spring time seems to be when the greatest concentration of oil is in the mussel.
