O knihe
The actions of the ¿ ¿-3(Omega-3) and ¿ ¿-6(Omega-6) essential fatty acids (EFAs) are best characterized by their interactions; they cannot be understood separately. For introductory details to this topic, including terminology and ¿-3 / ¿-6 nomenclature, see the main articles at Essential fatty acid and Eicosanoid. Arachidonic acid (AA) is a 20-carbon ¿-6 essential fatty acid. It sits at the head of the "arachidonic acid cascade" - more than twenty different signalling paths that control a wide array of bodily functions, but especially those functions involving ¿ inflammation and the ¿ central nervous system.[2] Most AA in the human body derives from dietary ¿ linoleic acid (another essential fatty acid, 18:2 ¿-6), which comes both from vegetable oils and ¿ animal fats. In the inflammatory response, two other groups of dietary essential fatty acids form cascades that parallel and compete with the arachidonic acid cascade. ¿ EPA (20:5 ¿-3) provides the most important competing cascade. It is ingested from ¿ oily fish or derived from dietary alpha-linolenic acid found in, for instance, ¿ hemp oil and ¿ flax oil. ¿ DGLA (20:3 ¿-6) provides a third, less prominent cascade.
