Essentials to take care in the body

The body, by chemistry is made up of organic compounds, basically: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Nitrogen. Hence it can synthesise a lot of compounds required by using these elements itself, however there are few essential fatty acids, amino acids and minerals/vitamins which can not be synthesised and which we need to give our body in dietary form only.

Essential fatty acids: Omega 3 and Omega 6
Omega 6 sources: Almonds, pistachio, Pumpkin seeds and pumpkin seed oil
Omega 3 sources: Flax and chia seeds, Seafood, Walnut
It is very very crucial to notice that roughly through the food we consume, we can max maintain the Omega 3: Omega 6 ratio as 1:4
We recommend

Flaxseed oil (veg)
Cod liver oil or fish oil (non veg)
For 2 to 4 gram omega 3 everyday.

Omega 6 is present in so many things, hence really don’t need to be worried about it.
