Best Answer

Omega 3 is the name of a type of fat that is found in oil-rich fish and some plant oils and is also known as 'n-3'.

They are from the family of 'good' fats - polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that are not only beneficial for health but are essential in the diet.

Omega 3 also benefits you to a healthier and more active brain.
