    Saturated fatty acids 16 and 18 carbons in length are the dominant types in the epidermis, [35] [36] while unsaturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids of various other lengths are also present. [ 35 ] [ 36 ] The relative abundance of the different fatty acids in the epidermis is dependent on the body site the skin is covering. [ 36 ]

    Omega−3 fatty acids are important for normal metabolism. [ 2 ] Mammals are unable to synthesize omega−3 fatty acids, but can obtain the shorter-chain omega−3 fatty acid ALA (18 carbons and 3 double bonds) through diet and use it to form the more important long-chain omega−3 fatty acids, EPA (20 carbons and 5 double bonds) and then from ...

    Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are fatty acids that are required by humans and other animals for normal physiological function that cannot be synthesized in the body. [1] [2] ⁠ As they are not synthesized in the body, the essential fatty acids – alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid – must be obtained from food or from a dietary supplement.
