Which one of the following combination of all three fatty acids are essential for human beings?
Oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid
Palmitic acid, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid
Oleic acid, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid
Linoleic acid, linolenic acid and arachidonic acid
D.
Linoleic acid, linolenic acid and arachidonic acid
Fatty acids, such as linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic acids contain two or more cis carbon-carbon double bonds and are referred to as polyunsaturated fatty acids. These fatty acids are required nutrients for humans and must be part of a healthy diet.
They are termed essential fatty acids. These cannot be synthesised by human beings but are essential to human health. They must be consumed in adequate amounts specially in the form of ingested plant derived foods.
