Linoleic acid is the most important of these fatty acids because it is convertible to other essential fatty acids. Linoleic acid has two double bonds and is a polyunsaturated fatty acid.
Linoleic acid is a fatty acid that is essential for healthy skin and hair, as well as normal brain function. It can’t be produced in the body naturally and thus has to be obtained via food. It is included in various cooking and salad oils, margarine, etc. among dietary applications, and is also an ingredient in quick-drying soaps and oils and several other industrial applications.
