Answer 1

HELLO..

Fatty acids, in particular essential fatty acids (EFAs) -- alpha-linolenic (omega-3) and linoleic acid (omega-6) -- are intimately related to managing inflammation in the body. Fatty acids provide the building blocks for your body to make prostaglandins, agents that increase and decrease inflammation in the body.

Answer 2

In chemistry, particularly in biochemistry, a
fatty acid is a carboxylic acid with a long
aliphatic chain, which is either saturated or
unsaturated. Most naturally occurring fatty
acids have an unbranched chain of an even
number of carbon atoms, from 4 to 28.[1]
Fatty acids are usually not found in
organisms, but instead as three main classes
of esters: triglycerides, phospholipids, and
cholesterol esters. In any of these forms,
fatty acids are both important dietary
sources of fuel for animals and they are
important structural components for cells.
