Headaches and Fatty Acids |
|
Fatty acids are important metabolic nutrients that strongly influence
inflammation processes in the body. Several essential fatty acids influence
the production of prostaglandins--hormone-like substances that stimulate
inflammation and are thus implicated in the development of a variety of
headaches.1 Numerous studies have specifically linked metabolites of
arachidonic acid, an important fatty acid, with the development of
migraine.2,3
The Essential and Metabolic Fatty Acids Analysis identifies levels of 30
individual fatty acids and determines five crucial fatty acid ratios,
establishing a clear and solid foundation for designing and monitoring an
effective supplement program.
