This snapshot will explore how SNPs on the FADS genes can impact an individual's need and response to EFAs (essential fatty acids). Omegas 3,6 and 9 are EFAs which help to support immune and mental health.

Some of the key topics covered:

EFAs (essential fatty acids) Omegas 3-6-9

Functions – brain health, cell membranes, immunity

FADS Genes – elongation; Impact of SNPs

Support – Ratios, FoodsGrass versus Grain
Animal or Vegetable
Alternatives to refined vegetable oils


These streams are a series of one-hour discussions covering a variety of topics with the time roughly split between a talk and Q&A.
