Carbohydrates- Fats
- [expand title=”Essential Fatty Acids”]Mammals lack the ability to introduce double bonds in fatty acids beyond carbon 9 and 10, hence ω-6 linoleic acid (18:2,9,12), abbreviated LA (18:2n-6), and the ω-3 linolenic acid (18:3,9,12,15), abbreviated ALA (18:3n-3), are essential for humans in the diet. In humans, arachidonic acid (20:4,5,8,11,14, abbreviated 20:4n-6) can be synthesized from LA by alternative desaturation and chain elongation.[/expand] Link
- Omega 3
- Plant
- Alpha-Linolenic Acid ALA
- [expand title=”Source”]Sources of plant oils containing the omega−3 ALA fatty acid include walnut, edible seeds, clary sage seed oil, algal oil, flaxseed oil, Sacha Inchi oil, Echium oil, and hemp oil[/expand]
- Animal
- Eicosapentaenoic Acid EPA
- Docosahexaenoic Acid DHA
- [expand title=”Source”]Sources of animal omega−3 EPA and DHA fatty acids include fish, fish oils, eggs from chickens fed EPA and DHA, squid oils, and krill oil[/expand]
- Plant
- Omega 6

- [expand title=”Other”]Gamma-linolenic acid, calendic acid, eicosadienoic acid, dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, docosadieonic acid, adrenic acid, osbond acid, tetracosatetraenoic acid[/expand]

Saturated – No double bonds, BAD- Unsaturated – Some double bonds
- Mono
- Poly
Trans, BAD
