Why Omegas?
Omega-6 and Omega-3 are Essential Fatty Acids involved with producing life's energy. Pets often have a dietary deficiency in Essential Fatty Acids due to a high intake of animal fats. These Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids can promote skin and coat health, including relief of skin dryness, dandruff and psoriasis caused by a lack of high quality Essential Fatty Acids. Omega Fatty Acids are thought to help both skin and coat by improving cell membrane function essentially lubricating skin tissue from the inside. Proper levels of Essential Fatty Acids are also associated with mood and mental function.

The Essential Fatty Acids, consisting of alpha linolenic acid (omega-3) and linoleic acid (omega-6), are substances that cannot be manufactured in your pet's body, and thus must be taken in as supplements or through high-EFA foods in order to sustain health. It is the highly reactive nature of these fats that makes them so fundamental to bodily functions, and that allows them to increase oxidation and metabolic rate.

Proper levels of Essential Fatty Acids are associated
with elevated mood and enhanced mental function.

From the Experts:

"Omega 3 is found in fewer foods than Omega 6. If you were to eat only one food to obtain these EFA's, then the best overall source and choice is flax seed (well, actually the best source is hemp seed but it is harder to get hemp seed).

In addition, I sometimes use hemp seed oil. The beauty about hemp seed is that it is naturally balanced between omega 3 and omega 6. We need to combine flax, pumpkin and sunflower seed to get the balance that hemp seed naturally has!"

From the Experts:

"Recognizing the unique benefits of EPA and DHA and the serious consequences of a deficiency the US National Institutes of Health recently published Recommended Daily Intakes of fatty acids. They recommend a total daily intake of 650 mg of EPA and DHA, 2.22 g/day of alpha-linolenic acid and 4.44 g/day of linoleic acid. Saturated fat intake should not exceed 8 per cent of total calorie intake or about 18 g/day."

HEMP SEED: Nature's Ancient Superfood!
by Udo Erasmus Author of "Fats that Heal, Fats that Kill"

Hemp seeds have an established place in history as a nourishing and delicious food. Cultures from around the world have their local recipes. Russians make porridge, sweets and a delicious butter said to be superior to peanut butter. The Chinese enjoy snacks of roasted seeds and in South Africa babies are weaned on a hemp "Pablum". In fact, the medicinal properties of hemp seeds in ancient Chinese pharmacopoeia are substantial. No other single plant source can compare with the nutritional value. Both the complete protein and the essential oils contained in hemp seed are in ideal ratios for human nutrition.

DANGERS of "low fat" and "no fat"

Recent trends to produce "low fat" and "no fat" foods present untimely dangers to human biology. In an effort to reduce the intake of saturated fats which typically provide little nutritional benefit and are attributed to excess weight gain, food manufacturers are producing products that contain no source of essential fatty acids. An ideal fat source needs to contain a balance of essential fatty acids (EFAs). They are known as Omega-3 or alpha linoleic acid and Omega-6 or linoleic acid. Hemp foods and hemp oil will be at the head of the "good fat" line, since they contain 80% EFAs. Fats and oils provide a carrier for the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, B and K. They also produce energy. As the trend towards "nutraceuticals" (nutritional foods or substances which prevent disease) continues, the increasingly sophisticated consumer will turn to hemp seed.

ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS

EFAs absorb sunlight and keep membranes fluid. Their tendency to disperse gives biological systems the power to carry substances such as toxins to the surface of the skin, intestinal tract, kidneys, or lungs, where these substances can be discarded.

EFAs are involved in producing life energy in our body from food substances, and moving that energy throughout our systems. They govern growth, vitality, and mental state. They hook up oxygen, electron transport, and energy in the process of oxidation. Oxidation, the central and most important moment-to-moment living process in our body, is the 'burning' of food to produce the energy required for life processes. EFAs are involved in the transporting of oxygen to all our cells. EFAs can be likened to oxygen 'magnets' that pull oxygen into our body. Linoleic Acid and Linolenic Acid appear to hold oxygen in our cell membranes, where it acts as a barrier to viruses, fungi and bacteria.

EFAs substantially shorten the time required for fatigued muscles to recover after exercise. They facilitate the conversion of lactic acid to water and carbon dioxide. This is especially important to athletes.

EFAs increase metabolic rates. They increase the metabolic rate and burn more fat into carbon dioxide, water and energy sometimes resulting in weight loss.

Linolenic Acid and its derivatives can lower cholesterol hy up to 65%. It also produces smooth, velvety skin, increases stamina, speeds healing, increases vitality, and brings a feeling of calmness. It reduces inflammation, water retention, platelet stickiness, and blood pressure. It also inhibits the growth of tumors and enhances some immune functions, reduces the pain and swelling of arthritis, and completely reverses premenstrual syndrome in some cases. It has been known to kill malaria and has been used successfully to treat bacterial infections."
