Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have more than one carbon bond in the molecule. Omega-3 fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids. These fats are essential for improving the metabolic functions of the human body. They are widely used across pharmaceuticals, infant formula, food and beverages, dietary supplement, and animal food &feed. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are compounds that have more than one unsaturated carbon bond. They are important fats that cannot be produced by the human body hence it is required to consume through food as it improves the overall metabolic process. They have beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system and also help to enhance cognitive functions. Polyunsaturated fatty acids include omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids.
