General Health Information

The levels of fat consumed in a diet is very important in a healthy lifestyle. Omega 3 and 6 are types of fat that are very important in one's health. A correct balance is needed. Omega 3 generally needs to be consumed more. It may reduce the risk of heart attack, strokes and rheumatoid arthritis. Only a small amount is needed but as it is not common in foods it can be difficult to get. It can also be found in oily fish such as mackerel, herring, sardines and salmon along with walnuts, linseeds, pumpkin seeds, rapeseed oil and dark green leafy vegetables.

Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats help cut the risk of heart disease as they have lower cholesterol levels. Omega 6 fats reduce bad cholesterol thus leading to a happier and healthier heart.

Donegal Rapeseed Oil has 11 times more Omega 3 than olive oil. This is recognised as an important requirement for healthier diet.
