ARA Powder

Arachidonic Acid (AA) Powder

ARA, commonly known as Arachidonic Acid, is the most important omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid in the human body

Introduction

ARA (AA) scientific name eicosatetraenoic acid, also known as arachidonic acid, belongs to the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid of the Omega-6 family. ARA is an essential fatty acid in early childhood. However, in infants and young children, the ability of babies to synthesize ARA is low. Therefore, for babies who are in the golden period of physical development, providing a certain amount of ARA in food will be more conducive to their physical development. The lack of ARA may have serious adverse effects on the development of human tissues and organs, especially the development of the brain and nervous system. After growing up, the human body can be transformed from essential fatty acids linoleic acid and linolenic acid, so it belongs to semi-essential fatty acids.
