EFA

Always consult your primary physician when starting a nutrition program with Vitamin EPA.

EFAs are a special type of “good fat”. They are also essential nutrients; sometimes called vitamin F. Essential nutrients are necessary for life, but must be obtained through diet because the body cannot make them. EFAs are required for the proper structure and function of every cell in the body, and are important for optimal health. EFAs increase the absorption of vitamins and minerals; nourish the skin, hair and nails; promote proper nerve functioning; help produce hormones; ensure normal growth and development; and prevent and treat disease.
