Because every cell in the body needs them for renewal, only the omega 3 and 6 have been designated as Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) by scientists. They cannot be produced in the body so a food source is necessary.
The benefits of EFA supplementation are: increased stamina and energy, enhanced immune function with greater disease resistance, alleviation from allergies with improved skin and coat condition, less joint and muscle stiffness, accelerated healing from injuries and surgery and improvement in chronic illness.
Most commercial pet foods contain little or none and when they do, the quality and bio-availability is questionable. It is “essential” that omega 3 and 6 be in the proper 2:1 ratio and be cold pressed. The majority of oils found on the supermarket shelf have been altered by heat, light, oxygen and processing.
In Keep Your Pet Healthy The Natural Way, author Pat Lazarus quotes Dr. Robertson, DVM who believes, “These EFA’s are the most critical nutrients that we have to deal with today; it is absolutely essential that pets get adequate amounts of these nutrients.”
