In this podcast, Dr. Berg discussed Essential Fatty Acids on the ketogenic diet. Essential meaning it is important but the body cannot make this type of fat and this category of fat is not just used for energy, it is used to replace body parts. If you are a vegan, there’s only a 5% limited rate of ALA conversion to DHA and EPA. And if ALA and LA are both present in the diet at about the same time, LA will take priority and block the absorption of ALA. Two Main Categories of Essential Fatty Acids: • ALA or Alpha-Linolenic (Omega 3) • LA or Linoleic (Omega 6) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, 51 years of age is a chiropractor who specializes in weight loss through nutritional & natural methods.
