Fish Oil Depression - Your Fish Oil and The Mind Questions

Yes folks, fats make up to 60% of our brains. Like protein makes our muscles and calcium our bones, fats make our brain. But not any fat. We need a special fat, DHA, that’s is the major component of our brain.

I repeat, DHA is the major component of our brain tissue.

That said, is very simple to understand why if we don’t supply our body with enough omega 3 there is going to be some unbalance in our brain chemistry. Therefore, in our brain function.

In that case, Omega 3 deficiency , instead of DHA our body uses whatever fats are available to work with: Omega 6 and Trans Fatty Acids. If you don't have much DHA in your blood, man-made trans-fat molecules may be used as the brain construction material, instead. But trans-fats (hydrogenated oils) are shaped differently than DHA: they are straight while DHA is curved.

If you repeat the scenario every day, you may end with depression, failing memory, bad moods. Do this to developing brains and you have children having difficulties learning, behavior problems in class. Their neurons have faulty connections with no omega 3 but Trans fats.

The eye is another perfect example of the importance of getting the right kind of fat. The retina of the eye has a high concentration of DHA, which the body forms from nutritious fats in the diet. The more nutritious the fat, the better the eye can function. And since most people are visual learners, better eyes mean better brains.

This should be a reason not to believe in those diets low in fats, good fats.
