Description

Function

  1. Brain Development:
    • ARA is a key structural component of brain cell membranes, particularly important for cognitive development and function.
    • It supports synaptic plasticity and neurotransmitter production, enhancing learning and memory.
  2. Immune System Regulation:
    • ARA serves as a precursor for eicosanoids (prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes), which are crucial for regulating immune responses and inflammation.
    • It helps in modulating the immune system to respond effectively to infections and injuries.
  3. Inflammation Management:
    • While ARA can promote inflammation through eicosanoid production, it also plays a role in resolving inflammation by supporting the body’s natural regulatory mechanisms.
  4. Skin Health:
    • ARA is involved in maintaining skin barrier function and hydration, contributing to healthy skin.
    • It helps in wound healing and maintaining skin elasticity.
  5. Muscle and Tissue Health:
    • ARA supports muscle function and recovery, particularly after exercise.
    • It is involved in the regulation of muscle growth and repair processes.
