Oocytes, obesity, and omega-3 fatty acids
Fatty acids are vital dietary sources of energy for humans and are also important structural components of cells. The well-known omega-3 fatty acids, also known as n-3 fatty acids, are not made in enough quantities in the body and therefore need to be acquired from dietary sources making them essential fatty acids. In general, n-3 fatty acids have been shown to improve conditions such as psychiatric disease, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, ADHD, fetal brain development, autoimmune disease, and cancer.
