  1. Omega 3 fatty acid


  2. Fish with fat stores are high in omega -3 fatty acids of two kinds, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Nut oils are also sources for the polyunsaturated fatty acids.

    Unsaturated fatty acids like this are not synthesized by humans but are essential for children in growth and possibly in adult health also.
