Why do we need Omega-3 fatty acids?

• Mostly we all get enough ALA but the problem is EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), but the majority of European countries have lower daily consumption of Omega-3 fatty acids than advised:
• Many health professionals recommend 250-1000 mg/day.
• In Europe, this intake on average is significantly under 500 mg.

Why do EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids matter?
