DHA is an essential fatty acid. It is said to be "indispensable" because our body does not know how to synthesize it and must provide it through food.
EPA is a non-essential fatty acid because it can be produced by the body from the essential alpha-linolenic fatty acid (ALA), but unfortunately not enough. It must therefore be brought by food.

Microrequilibrium expertise in micronutrition:
¦ Omega 3 deficiency in France was recognized by AFSSA in 2003. The intake of alpha-linolenic acid was evaluated in 2099 men and 2785 women over a period of 30 months between 1994 and 1998. Alpha acid intake -linolenic was more than two times lower than the recommended intake.
¦ Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) contribute to normal cardiac function through daily consumption of 250 mg EPA and DHA.
¦ Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) helps normal brain function and maintain normal vision. These effects are obtained by the daily consumption of 250 mg of DHA.
