Description
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is an essential omega-3 fatty acid that the body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained through diet. It's a precursor to other omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA, although the conversion rate is limited. ALA plays a role in reducing inflammation, supporting heart health, and promoting brain function.
