Increased with the improvement of human living standards, cardiovascular disease and diabetes and other metabolic disorders and healthy eating up more by the broad masses of the people of note, alpha linolenic acid to do a useful supplement in the diet. DHA and EPA belong to the human body must and can not be synthesized by the need of nutrients, and the and DHA are the precursors of EPA and, the human body's own enzymes can be alpha flax acid into DHA and EPA. According to the relevant research papers in the International Journal of pharmaceutical research:
One, resist thrombosis
Early epidemiological surveys have found that increased EPA in the diet can lead to decreased platelet accumulation and prolonged bleeding time. Through the long-term investigation found that increased alpha linolenic acid intake can reduce cholesterol and triglyceride content, so as to resist thrombosis and reduce the risk of ischemic heart disease.
Two, regulation of lipid metabolism
Studies have shown that in the daily diet to increase the intake of alpha - acid, can be reduced to the level of blood lipids. Plants of the alpha - and - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - have a beneficial effect on the concentration of blood lipids and phospholipids in.
Three, lowering blood pressure
By the normal middle-aged people to carry out the blood pressure test to prove that the increase of alpha - acid can make the average arterial pressure decreased by 667kPa.
