Omega-3 fatty acids are beneficial to humans in more ways than we know of

Sadiq Shaban

A growing body of scien-tific research has come to the agreement that Omega-3 fatty acids help lower your cho-

lesterol level, reduce high blood pressure, protect you from heart attacks, and ease joint pains, be-sides improving your memory. Experts opine that Omega-3 fatty acids are vital for normal metabo-lism but since they cannot be syn-thesised by the human body, there is a need to include the same in our diet. While flax seeds and walnuts are known to be excellent sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, salmon, sardines, cloves, grass-fed beef, shrimp, cod, tuna, soy-

beans, tofu, kale, collard greens, and winter squash are also excel-lent sources.

Omega-3 are polyunsaturated fatty acids that are categorised as eicosapentaenic acid (EPA), doco-sahexanoic acid (DHA) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Unlike the saturated fats in foods like butter, which can raise levels of un-healthy (LDL) cholesterol, poly-unsaturated fats are healthy be-cause they help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the body’s in-flammation. Recent research has concluded that Omega-3 fatty ac-ids have a beneficial effect in bi-polar disorder.

Omega-3 fatty acid present in fish oil is known to improve lipid profiles and oxidative stress in pa-tients. Besides improving the car-

diovascular risk profile of people with metabolic syndrome, includ-ing markers of inflammation and auto-immunity, Omega-3 in mod-erate doses reduces cardiac prob-lems, and in high doses reduces non-fatal cardiovascular events. Dietary supplementation with Omega-3 fatty acids also cuts down the incidence of sudden cardiac death in patients with myocardial infarction.

Our bodies require Omega-3 fatty acids for several normal functions, such as controlling blood clotting and building cell membranes in the brain. How-ever, most people do not get enough of Omega-3. For good health, it is advisable to get at least one rich source of Omega-3

fatty acids in the diet on a daily basis. A serving of fish such as salmon, a tablespoon of canola or soybean oil in cooking, or a hand-ful of walnuts or ground flaxseed, can achieve this.

Pertinently Omega-3 fatty ac-ids have proven effective in re-ducing the prevalence of several diseases like:

Blood fat: Omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil supplements reduce ele-vated triglyceride levels.

Rheumatoid arthritis: Omega-3 fatty acids are known to alleviate

stiffness and joint pain, besides boosting the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Depression: Omega-3 is known to boost the effects of antidepres-sants and is known to reduce the depressive symptoms of bipolar disorder.

Asthma: There is medical evi-dence that Omega-3 in diet re-duces inflammation, a key com-ponent in asthma.

Alzheimer’s disease and demen-tia: Some preliminary research has shown that Omega-3 in the food may help protect against Al-zheimer’s disease and dementia.

The introduction of Omega-3 in milk — that provides enhanced all round nourishment in a very con-venient form — is expected to offer the health-seeking consumer a balanced daily dose of essential fats our bodies need.

Al Rawabi Dairy Company, one of the UAE’s leading dairy prod-uct manufacturers has grown in leaps and bounds over the past decade. Today, the company is increasingly focused on health – a key concern considering the health challenges faced in the UAE and the region, with high obesity rates and rise in diabetes.

It’s no surprise that demand for healthier options, or functional foods as the industry terms it, are growing rapidly, and Al Rawabi is constantly innovating to meet them.

Nearly 70 per cent of all new Al Rawabi products in the pipeline are functional food products. The company recently invested over Dh10 million in new plant facili-ties at its farm on the outskirts of Dubai in Al Khawaneej that can now manufacture up to 250,000 litres of fresh milk, dairy products and juices every day.

Al Rawabi Omega-3 Milk is the latest innovation from the compa-ny. Launched recently, Al Rawabi Omega-3 Milk has been flying off the shelves, a clear indicator that consumers were waiting for it.

So, what’s so special about Al Rawabi’s latest offering?

As the name indicates, Al Rawabi Omega-3 milk is enriched with Omega-3, which is a vital compo-nent for health and development in children and adults alike. Ome-ga-3 fats include ALA, DHA and EPA — all essential fats that are necessary for our health, but the body can’t make them, which means we have to get them through food.

Research has proved that DHA based Omega-3 provides signifi-cant health benefits, especially for children, as it supports the normal development of the brain, eyes

and nerves. In fact DHA is so es-sential in brain development that it’s mandatory for expecting moth-ers and newborns to have DHA, and that’s why it’s always included in nearly all-infant formulas.

DHA helps lower the risk of heart attack and stroke, and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent that may reduce the stiffness and pain of joints afflicted with arthri-tis. Omega-3s also show promise

in protecting our vision and cog-nitive health as we age, besides helping to prevent some cancers and obesity.

With Al Rawabi now adding DHA-based Omega-3 fats to its already healthful, wholesome fresh milk, the company has a win-ner on its hands and to put it in the words of the company’s General Manager Dr Ahmed El Tigani, “Omega-3 milk was a natural pro-gression given its inherent benefits and the growing consumer de-mand for health products in the region as such. What we have done is simply made it easy for the con-sumer to get his daily intake of Omega-3.”

Al Rawabi Omega-3 Milk has the same fresh, pure taste of Al Rawabi milk, because it’s enriched with Omega-3 from a plant source. So you can use it like regular milk with the added confidence that it comes to your table fresh from the Al Rawabi farm right here in the UAE.
