Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3 PUFAs) like Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) convert to resolvins, protectins, and maresins. They have strong anti-inflammatory effects.
Omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3 PUFAs) are essential fatty acids in the human diet. They alter the structure and function of cell membranes.
