Gregory Chandler on Omega-9 Fatty Acids



I often blog about omega-3 fatty acids.  My amount of my discussions about omega-3 fatty acids are because omega-3 fatty acids are the most critical of the omega fatty acids.  I, however, do not blog as much about omega-9 fatty acids.

Omega-9 fatty acids help lower the risk of cancer and heart disease.  Omega-9 fatty acids also have anti-inflammatory properties that enhance joint healing.  Olive oil is a good source of omega-9 fatty acids.  If you prefer omega-9s in supplement form, one can purchase omega-9 at a health food store.  The supplement form will often have omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 as a combination.
